Aaron Rodgers has been the talk of the NFL community lately, as he expressed his desire for a “package deal” that would bring him and two other top Packers players to the Jets. Although the specific players involved have not been confirmed, anticipation is growing among fans.

One of those fans is Sauce Gardner, the NFL’s defensive rookie of the year, who is betting everything on the possibility of Rodgers becoming his new teammate. Gardner has boldly burned his Cheesehead hat while speculating on the business side of this potential deal.

As a rising star in the NFL and standout cornerback for the New York Jets, Gardner is actively following Rodgers’ situation and hoping to see him leave his longtime team, the Packers, to sign with the Jets this offseason.

According to Adam Schefter, the New York Jets are making moves to acquire Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb, former receivers for the Packers.

Allen Lazard had a breakout year in 2019. He caught 35 passes for 477 yards and three touchdowns, and even snagged a 35-yard touchdown in a victory over the Detroit Lions. The Jets have since added Lazard to their receiving corps, joining up-and-comer Denzel Mims to create a strong unit.

In addition to Lazard, Randall Cobb is a well-known veteran receiver in the NFL. Throughout his career, he has built a reputation for being reliable and clutch, with excellent hands and playmaking abilities. He has even earned a Pro Bowl selection and played a crucial role in the Packers’ 2011 Super Bowl championship team.
