Former NFL executive Joe Banner suggested the New York Jets have the leverage in any deal involving Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers
Aaron Rodgers, #12 of the Green Bay Packers, throws a pass in the fourth quarter against the New York Jets at Lambeau Field on Oct. 16, 2022 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
"Believing the Jets will do something that will reflect impatience is not leverage. That’s just hoping they’re stupid. Leverage is putting the Packers in a position where they could lose the only interested team, which creates a complete disaster for them."are in a tough predicament and cannot take Rodgers back even if they tried. That is why he said New York should not offer a first-round pick for him.
"Why put a one on the table when all you’re gaining is getting him a little bit sooner maybe? The Packers have to cave at some point." New York’s situation at quarterback is not getting any better either. The team benched Zach Wilson in the middle of last season to go with Mike White and even started Joe Flacco in some games."At this point, as I sit here, I think since Friday, I made it clear that my intention was to play and my intention was to play for the New York Jets," he told Pat McAfee.
