Finally, after a tumultuous offseason and more than two years of ‘will he won’t he leave the Packers’ drama, Aaron Rodgers has finally been traded to the New York Jets.

Back in February, Aaron Rodgers himself revealed on The Pat McAfee Show that he wishes to play for the Jets and leave behind the only home he’s ever known in the league, Green Bay. The Packers were also more than happy to part ways with the 4x NFL MVP because they were ready to have Jordan Love under center after benching him for three years.

This trade has shifted the power scales in the league all toward the AFC. The AFC now houses the best quarterbacks in the league including – Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Trevor Lawrence. 2023 is going to be a hell of a season with the best of the best fighting for a spot in the playoffs that will launch them inches closer to the Super Bowl and the Lombardi Trophy.

The trade negotiations for Aaron Rodgers between the Packers and the Jets had been going on for more than a month and the two franchises were at a stalemate regarding the compensation. Many even termed this trade a ‘Cold War’, as neither of them was willing to settle. But looks like they have finally found common ground as the trade went down on Monday without any further hitch.

The Packers received picks no 13, 42, and 207 of the 2023 draft and a conditional second-round pick in the 2024 draft that becomes a first-round pick if Aaron Rodgers plays 65 percent of the plays. The Jets, on the other hand, received Super Bowl XLV winning quarterback, pick 15 and 170 in the 2023 draft.

The successful trade of Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets was a cause for celebration for many around the league. However, there were some fans who weren’t as excited as others about Rodgers entering the AFC. The reason being that the trade was teased for so long that it lost its appeal and now is just another piece of news for them.

With Aaron Rodgers being the new quarterback for the Jets, the future of Zach Wilson is anybody’s guess now. The team hasn’t released an official statement on what they plan on doing with Wilson. Let’s just hope he doesn’t make Rodgers’ “life hell in practice every day.”
