All the speculation surrounding Aaron Rodgers’ future with the Packers came to an end on Monday. That’s because he was finally traded to the Jets.
The Packers acquired multiple draft picks in return for Rodgers, which includes a conditional 2024 second-round pick that will become a first-rounder if he plays 65 percent of the Jets’ offensive snaps this fall.
So, when will Rodgers show up to his new home? According to ESPN’s Dianna Russini, the four-time MVP will arrive in New Jersey this evening.
Naturally, the NFL world had a lot to say about Rodgers’ pending arrival.

For decades, the Jets have been searching for a franchise quarterback. They now have one in Rodgers.
With that said, the introductory press conference for Rodgers should be a spectacle.
