Super Bowl champion rumored to be backup plan if Jets’ Aaron Rodgers trade fails

Fox News Flash top sports headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com.

The New York Jets and Green Bay Packers are reportedly continuing their talks about trading four-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The 39-year-old announced last week it is his intention to play for New York. 

But, as Rodgers mentioned and the situation clearly states, a trade has yet to be agreed upon. So, while Rodgers does want to play for a different team for the first time in his NFL career, it’s not yet done. 

In the case the Jets can’t find common ground with the Packers, Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio said New York had a possible backup plan in place well before Rodgers made his decision to return to the NFL and seek a trade.

The Los Angeles Rams’ Super Bowl-winning quarterback Matthew Stafford had been rumored to be available via trade considering the team’s struggles last season after winning it all the year before. 

While the Rams have said Stafford is a pillar of their organization and someone to build around, Florio claims that the team "would have welcomed" the idea of a trade for him, and the Jets would have been a top contender to do so. 

"The Rams would have (we’re told) welcomed the opportunity to trade Stafford," Florio wrote for Pro Football Talk. "If Aaron Rodgers hadn’t decided to join the Jets, Stafford could have become the Plan B, if he would have been willing to go to New York."
