Earlier today, Trey Wingo touched off a firestorm by claiming that Aaron Rodgers to the Jets is a done deal. And we’ve indeed heard the same thing.
But as Monday yields to Tuesday, there’s nothing official regarding Rodgers’s plans for 2023.
We’re still hearing that Rodgers plans to accept a trade to New York. But we know from experience that nothing is done until it’s done.
It could be as simple as Rodgers, who takes almost perverse pride in being able to say that no one who covers the NFL for a living knows what he’s going to do, using the power he has amassed over the Jets (who desperately want him) and the Packers (who desperately want to get rid of him) to insist that no one should say anything until the delicate genius grants them express written permission to do so.
