Aaron Rodgers has been one of the most discussed players during the NFL offseason thus far.
After saying that he intends to play for the New York Jets, which happened over a month ago, nothing has changed.
A recent rumor has surfaced, citing that Rodgers may be getting impatient with this delay.
Some have pointed to the Tennessee Titans as a potential destination, which Mike Florio has recently shot down.
“This trade (to the Jets) is happening,” Florio explained.
Could the Packers trade Aaron Rodgers to a team other than the Jets? Only if his “intention” changes. For now, there’s no reason to think that has happened, or that it will. https://t.co/5qIc3HzQrm

The Jets have continued to position themselves to acquire Rodgers, adding wide receiver depth, and adding to their team as a whole.
One of the most recent players they have added was Allen Lazard, one of Rodgers’ favorite teammates from the Packers.
The Jets have also added Mecole Hardman, a former receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs.
By continuing to reinvent and add to their offense, the Jets have primed their organization for a player of Rodgers’ caliber.
The Jets currently face a 12-year playoff drought and have worked tirelessly to break that trend.
When will Rodgers join the team?
Florio suggests that this move is likely to be done in the next few weeks, given the upcoming draft.
The compensation for Rodgers is likely to include draft picks, which the Packers will look to use in this year’s draft, if possible.
Fans are awaiting Rodgers’ arrival in New York, and Packers fans are ready to begin the Jordan Love era in Green Bay.
