Why Teams Can Speak to Aaron Rodgers Despite His Contract with the Jets

Timelines have been set for discussions regarding Rodgers, following the Jets' recent announcements.

While Aaron Rodgers remains under contract with the New York Jets, he can now start discussions with other teams interested in his skills. Recent announcements by the Jets have effectively lifted the restrictions, enabling conversations with teams that may want to engage with the four-time MVP.

By formally stating their intention to move on from Rodgers, the Jets have allowed other NFL clubs to initiate dialogues, adhering to league regulations that permit such discussions under these circumstances.

Though he will likely remain within the Jets’ payroll for the forthcoming months, formal operations with other teams have now been authorized, paving the way for a potential transition for Rodgers.

Notably, the Jets are expected to retain Rodgers on their roster until after June 1 to mitigate potential salary cap impacts. If a legitimate opportunity arises, he might urge the Jets for an early release before then.

As he decides on his future, several teams are anticipated to explore options with Rodgers, reflecting a wider market interest despite the challenges faced during the past season.
