The Aaron Rodgers' decision process regarding where he wants to play the next season appears to be over. After appearing on The Pat McAfee Show and stating his desire to play for the New York Jets, there were reports that Rodgers had a 'wish list' of players for the Jets to sign.
The said list also contained the name of Odell Beckham Jr, reportedly. While Rodgers himself stated there is no wish list, there is usually no smoke without fire.
It appears that Odell is interested in the move back to New York. Not with the Giants, but with the Jets. He responded to a fan's tweet about him joining Rodgers in New York in a rather curious way. He shared an emoticon of a pair of eyes intently glancing sideways.
See the tweet and OBJ's response to it below:
With Beckham Jr. thought to be a hot commodity this free agency period, the Jets are just one of a host of teams reportedly interested in acquiring his services.
The Dallas Cowboys have also registered their interest in him and that dates back to last year in the very public courting of the receiver. But after Odell couldn't work out for Dallas, any potential deal fell through.
So, he could be on Aaron Rodgers' wish list...correction, radar, as a potential weapon in New York. Just where he ends up is anyone's guess.
Could Odell Beckham Jr. work with the Jets and Aaron Rodgers?
The veteran receiver could work just about anywhere, and with Rodgers' fondness to play with veteran receivers, it could be an easy relationship to build between the pair.
The Jets already have some weapons on offense. in the form of Garrett Wilson, Elijah Moore, Corey Davis, and even Denzel Mims, who is out of favor. Now add in Odell Beckham Jr., and you suddenly have a playoff-calibre offense with Rodgers under center.
The salary for a potential move for Odell is likely a sticking point. The receiver reportedly wants between $15 million APY and $20 million AYP. Now, with Rodgers' astronomical contract that sees him make $59 million in 2023, just where Odell can fit in the Jets' salary cap is a mystery.
Despite that, the receiver seems open to playing for the 'other' team in New York. With Aaron Rodgers seemingly on his way as well, that just might be the thing that gets this deal over the line.
