The New York Giants seem to be the most probable destination for future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers this offseason.
Following Rodgers’ split from the New York Jets, speculation has surged regarding his next team. However, only a few teams would be in a position to pursue him.
Although the Los Angeles Rams were initially considered a potential fit for Rodgers, Matthew Stafford has signed a new deal. Additionally, Geno Smith has been traded to the Las Vegas Raiders, addressing their quarterback vacancy.
Currently, only four teams appear to be the most logical options for Rodgers.
The four teams that seem to be the most likely destinations for Rodgers are the Giants, Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, and potentially the Seahawks. Beyond these four, finding a suitable fit is challenging.
Art Stapleton, a beat writer for NorthJersey.com covering New York, provided a major update on the ongoing negotiations between Rodgers and the Giants.
During his appearance on Friday’s episode of the “Pat McAfee Show,” Stapleton shared this update and emphasized that the Giants are not intimidated by Rodgers.
“My understanding is, yes, they’ve talked about what it would take to get Aaron here with the Giants, to not leave New Jersey, and my understanding is that at every turn the Giants have yet to be scared off by the idea of Aaron Rodgers coming on some show every Tuesday,” Stapleton said. “It seems like everybody wants that to be a big issue. But I think from a football fit, this is something that they’re seriously considering.”
Rodgers has the potential to make the Giants a strong contender in the NFC. Despite facing criticism and claims that he’s “washed up,” the 41-year-old still has plenty of football left to play.
In the 2024 NFL season with the Jets, Rodgers played all 17 games, completing 63% of his passes for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.
