Sauce Gardner hints at ‘done deal’ as Aaron Rodgers rumors swirl

During a Twitch stream on Thursday, New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner said that if Aaron Rodgers is acquired, it would be “package deals all over.”

The New York Jets are the talk of the NFL currently, as they are looking to acquire Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Jets have been linked to Rodgers throughout the offseason, with reports indicating that the team would go all out in their pursuit of him. This week, the Jets received permission to speak to Rodgers, visited him in California, and, according to a report on Thursday, are reportedly confident that they can successfully pull off a trade.

During a Twitch stream on Thursday night, Jets cornerback and Defensive Rookie of the Year Sauce Gardner said that if Rodgers joined them, “it’s package deals all over,” while dropping the hint of “I can’t tell y’all who, but just know.”

Gardner was joined on the stream by Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall.

That is quite the way to catch the attention of Jets fans. What does he mean by package deals? Who would be joining the Jets? Who would be leaving the Jets? A decision by Rodgers can’t come soon enough for Gang Green fans.

When it was learned that a contingent of members of the Jets organization were flying out to California to meet with Rodgers, a variety of players sent their pitches to the four-time NFL MVP on Twitter, with Gardner being one of them.

Rodgers has been contemplating whether he wants to return to the Packers, play for a new team, or retire since the conclusion of the 2022 season. There was a bit more clarity after the Packers gave the Jets permission to speak with Rodgers. But, a deal can’t be finalized until Rodgers gives the proverbial thumbs up of approval.

Jets fans will be waiting as patiently as they can be to see if the team will be able to bring in a Super Bowl-winning quarterback in Rodgers.
