Report: Jets, Packers re-engage in Rodgers trade talks

The New York Jets and Green Bay Packers have re-engaged in trade discussions over quarterback Aaron Rodgers, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Talks had been dormant recently, but the two sides are hopeful that a deal can be reached this week, Rapoport adds.

The legendary quarterback announced last month that he intended to play for New York in 2023 after an 18-year run with the Packers. However, a trade hasn't come to fruition with the holdup reportedly being compensation.

Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said in late March that a first-round pick from the Jets wasn't necessary to complete the deal, though he wants fair value for the signal-caller.

The Jets currently hold one first-round pick (No. 13 overall) and two second-rounders (No. 42 and No. 43 overall) in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Rodgers has won four league MVPs and one Super Bowl with the Packers. Green Bay is set to move on to 2020 first-round pick Jordan Love under center.
