Aaron Rodgers made his intentions clear on his first day with the Jets on Wednesday.
“I’m an old guy so I want to be part of a team that can win it all,” Rodgers said at his introductory press conference in Florham Park. “I believe this is a place we can get that done.”
Rodgers hit all the right notes on his first day with the Jets, including showing deference to Namath. “I’m not showing up here to be part of a team that I think is OK,” Rodgers said. “Every year there’s a handful of teams that can win it. Most people don’t say that out loud. They say in training camp the goal is the same for all 32 teams but in actuality there’s anywhere from 8-12 teams that can actually do it and I believe we’re one of those teams.”After months of speculation and weeks of the Jets and Packers haggling over the terms of the trade, it was real.
