If Rodgers arrives in New York and plays for a couple of seasons, he will give them an opportunity to make a run at Super Bowl with a squad full of young players on team-friendly deals.Moreover, it will give Wilson an opportunity to learn from his idol and then slot in as his replacement to become the Jets QB in the long haul. The Packers are expected to trade away Aaron Rodgers for a couple of first-round picks, according to multiple reports, a price the Jets can afford in 2023.
