Packers’ David Bakhtiari puts Aaron Rodgers trade fears to rest: ‘Going to be a Jet’

One of Aaron Rodgers’ closest Packers teammates did not mince words: The quarterback will be a New York Jet.

David Bakhtiari, who has protected Rodgers’ blind side for years, appeared on Barstool’s “Bussin’ with the Boys” podcast this week.

While it has been weeks since Rodgers told Pat McAfee that he “intends” to play for the Jets, no deal has been consummated yet, but Bakhtiari didn’t sound like someone who thought the Packers and Jets were at a permanent impasse.

“I think that has probably been put to rest,” Bakhtiari said, according to CBS Sports.
