Aaron Rodgers made it clear: It’s on the Packers now.
Rodgers said Wednesday on “The Pat McAfee Show” it has been his intention to play for the Jets since Friday, but the Packers are holding a trade up.
“I haven’t been holding anything up. At this point it’s been compensation that the Packers are trying to get for me, kind of digging their heels in. It is interesting at this point to step back and take a look at the whole picture,” Rodgers said.
So, what do the Packers want?
Before the 39-year-old quarterback’s McAfee appearance, there were conflicting reports about Green Bay’s compensation requests.
On Wednesday’s installment of the ESPN morning show “Get Up,” the network’s NFL insider Adam Schefter said the Packers want two first-round picks for Rodgers — similar to what the Rams gave up to acquire Matthew Stafford from the Lions in January 2021.
