Jets have leverage in Aaron Rodgers trade, former NFL team exec says

The New York Jets and the Green Bay Packers have yet to strike a deal on a trade involving quarterback Aaron Rodgers, even after the four-time MVP revealed his intentions to play for Gang Green in 2023.

While the NFL world awaits any movement on the deal, former Philadelphia Eagles team president Joe Banner told the New York Post on Saturday that the Jets have the leverage in negotiations.

"For me, the Jets can wait without any risk or consequence," Banner told the paper. "The Packers, by waiting, risk that, for some reason, the Jets would not be interested, and then they have no one [to trade with], which really ruins their team for two, probably three years.

"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."

Banner believes the Packers 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.
