The Jets signed Tim Boyle on Thursday.
The move has sparked far more discussion than a transaction involving a journeyman 28-year-old backup quarterback in early April should. The reaction has fallen into one of two camps:
1. Boyle was Aaron Rodgers’ backup with the Packers, so this must be a sign the deal is close!
2. Is this a sign the Rodgers deal is in danger and Boyle might be the backup plan?
What are we doing here?
The former makes little sense. The latter makes even less.
