The NFL world has been abuzz with the news that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has requested a trade to the New York Jets about a week ago. After a disappointing 18th season with the Packers, Rodgers is looking for a change of scenery, and the Jets are in need of a quarterback after the Zach Wilson controversy. While the trade is not yet finalized, according to Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports, there has been progress towards a deal, with the Jets reportedly offering two second-round picks in exchange for Rodgers.

While the Jets are willing to part with two second-round picks, they are also reportedly seeking a pick to be supplemented in the trade as insurance in the case Rodgers decides to retire after the 2023 season. This is a smart move for the Jets, who are looking to build a long-term contender and need to ensure that they have assets to work with if Rodgers decides to hang up his cleats.

If the trade goes through, Rodgers would be a huge addition to the Jets, who are in desperate need of a quarterback to lead their abysmal offense. With Rodgers at the helm, the Jets would be catapulted into contention, as the team has an elite defense that just needs an offense to match. Rodgers is a 10-time Pro Bowler, Super Bowl champion, and four-time MVP, making him one of the most sought-after players in the league. With his experience and leadership, Rodgers could help turn the franchise around and put them on a path towards sustained success after they have struggled in recent years. 

Of course, there are still many hurdles to overcome before the trade can be finalized, and it remains to be seen whether Rodgers will ultimately end up in New York. However, the prospect of the future Hall of Famer joining the Jets is certainly an exciting one, and fans of the team will be eagerly watching to see how things play out in the coming weeks and months.
