Broncos: Aaron Rodgers to Mile High

By far the most likely destination for Rodgers is the Denver Broncos. One way to improve your odds of enticing Rodgers is to hire coaches that have familiarity with the 38-year-old quarterback. That’s exactly what the Broncos did. Denver hired Packers’ offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett as the head coach and Packers’ tight ends coach Justin Outten for the offensive coordinator position.

In addition to those hires, the Broncos possess one of the most talented receiving corps in the league, coupled with one of the rising, young running backs in the league in Javonte Williams. The offensive line is also more than serviceable, and the defense is one that creates havoc all over the field.

The fact that Denver has struggled offensively with Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy, Tim Patrick, and Noah Fant as the primary receiving options is shocking.

This roster has the same feeling of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before Tom Brady arrived and delivered a Super Bowl. Rodgers could come in and do the exact same thing.

The Broncos are desperate to find a franchise quarterback, especially when Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert are division rivals.

If the Broncos were able to acquire Rodgers, it would not be surprising at all to see them win the AFC West and represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.
