The Green Bay Packers appear to be a funnel for the New York Jets.
Over the past few weeks, several former Packers have joined the Jets.
This includes players like Allen Lazard, Billy Turner, and of course, Aaron Rodgers.
As Adam Schefter reported, Randall Cobb is the latest to link up with Rodgers, as he has signed a 1-year contract with the Jets.

Cobb will be entering his 13th NFL season at age 33.
Despite a lack of production during the 2022 campaign, Cobb will get at least one more year with Rodgers.
Cobb was one of the Packers’ most iconic receivers throughout the 2010s before being signed by the Dallas Cowboys.
After brief stints with the Cowboys and Houston Texans, Cobb spent the last two years with Rodgers and the Packers.
In the last two years, Cobb has totaled 62 receptions, 792 yards, and six touchdowns.
Now, Cobb joins a receiving corps that is loaded with young talent, which includes Lazard, Mecole Hardman, and Garrett Wilson.
Despite solid on-field production over the past several years, Cobb could serve in a mentorship role to these young receivers.
Adding Rodgers has instantly brought the Jets into the conversation for a deep playoff run.
They have one of the league’s best defenses, and their plethora of young weapons is second to none.
What will Cobb’s role look like on a Jets team that seems set at the wide receiver position?
With Rodgers at the helm, anything is possible.
