Green Bay running back Aaron Jones discussed on "Good Morning Football" that he hopes QB Aaron Rodgers stays with the Packers for the 2023 season.

You know he played with Tae ( [Davante Adams](https://www.nfl.com/players/davante-adams/)), so I hope that wouldn't happen. Carr's signing in New Orleans wiped out the most logical fallback option for Gang Green should Rodgers decline a New York overture. If not, then we have [Jordan Love](https://www.nfl.com/players/jordan-love/), who's more than capable, and he's ready to ball as well and ready for his shot." [Aaron Jones](https://www.nfl.com/players/aaron-jones/) said Tuesday on NFL Network's Good Morning Football. Will he return to Green Bay?

Midnight report claims Aaron Rodgers spoke to Jets on Monday (Jets X-Factor)

A late-night report stated that Aaron Rodgers spoke to the Jets and is interested in coming to New York. Is this true?

If they did, it would have come from either NFL Network, ESPN, or one of the Jets’ beat reporters. Therefore, it’s unlikely that any such report would have come from the Jets’ end unless they wanted it to. In this case, there is reason to be skeptical of the report. Additionally, Rodgers just said on The Pat McAfee Show two weeks ago that very few people are part of his inner circle and know what he’s thinking. While nothing is imminent Rodgers is open to the idea of going to NY There are also many pseudo-reporters out there who mimic the tweeting style and language of real reporters, thus confusing the public.

Rodgers spent four days on a "darkness retreat" in Oregon, confined to a 300-square foot dwelling that was partially underground, in February. Favre announced his retirement in March, but reversed the decision in June. The Jets made "veteran quarterback" a top priority in the offseason at the direction of team owner Woody Johnson. His salary represents a hurdle for Green Bay regardless of the outcome of trade talks. Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said last week at the NFL Scouting Combine that the team was waiting to hear from Rodgers about his 2023 plans. He completed 64.6 percent of his passes for 3,695 yards and 26 touchdowns while tossing 12 interceptions.

This team had been desperately trying (and failing) to keep the window open for some time now, and dealing Rodgers expedites a retooling. It opens Green Bay up to be financially fluid and address their other needs, while taking a step forward for the health of the franchise. There’s enough talent to work with, but also some major questions that need to be answered — all of which can’t be addressed with Rodgers on a big-money contract. San Francisco quarterbacks combined for nine interceptions in 2022, while the Jets threw 14 — running the most conservative offense imaginable to mitigate the risk of their QBs blowing the game. This is a team that ranked 2nd in the NFL in points allowed per drive and allowed only 18.6 points per game. If we factor in the improved weapons, and the defensive boost caused by getting a quarterback who doesn’t throw many interceptions — now the Jets are a potential Super Bowl favorite. While nothing is imminent Rodgers is open to the idea of going to NY— trey wingo (@wingoz) - Rodgers has given his okay to the Jets. It’s impossible to overstate just how bad the Jets’ quarterbacks were in 2022. Importantly, the Jets also have a heck of an offensive base with Garrett Wilson, Corey Davis and Elijah Moore at receiver, with Breece Hall at running back to glue it all together. 12 returning to the NFL and trading him away.

Aaron Rodgers trade tracker: Latest news, rumors on Jets, Raiders ... (Sporting News)

While the QB recently said a decision on his next move will come "soon enough" that soon enough isn't, well, quite soon enough. Here's the latest on trade ...

Somewhat unsurprisingly, Rodgers tops the Raiders' wish list of starters for 2023, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano. The wheels may be in motion for a Rodgers-to-New York trade, according to Trey Wingo and confirmed by SNY's Connor Hughes. The Jets and Packers have spoken, and they will continue to talk into Tuesday, ESPN's Dan Graziano reports. The Jets are sending in the heavy hitters to, seemingly, try and close the deal with Aaron Rodgers. They say that the quarterback is going to take his time, as usual, and that these meetings with the Jets brass are simply part of the process rather than indicative of something imminent. The Jets are reportedly meeting with the two-time league MVP in California, but according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport, there doesn't appear to be a decision coming soon from Rodgers.

Peter King Defends Aaron Rodgers Against New York Media ... (Zone Coverage)

Early in the off-season, as Aaron Rodgers leaving became a real possibility, the New York Jets emerged as an early contender for his services. Now, with.

If they are one of the best teams in the NFL Aaron Rodgers could go up to the podium every week and talk about nothing but conspiracy theories and everybody would be fine. Don’t let a silly narrative fool you into thinking that one of the greatest athletes we’ve ever seen can’t handle the media in a big city. During the most divisive time in American history as people took their sides during a pandemic over a vaccine debate, Rodgers became the poster child of a side that the national media didn’t agree with. It’s nice to see someone with King’s platform acknowledge how the media has focused on Rodgers in recent years. Some people that hear it and don’t ascribe to the same echo chamber that it appears Rodgers lives in, I think that that would light up 24/7 stations, radio stations, multiple talk shows…I don’t know if Rogers would want a piece of that.” The throw was open.…In Green Bay you’ll see some people on Twitter saying Rodgers isn’t perfect but everyone in Green Bay shrugs.
