The Jets sent a package of draft picks to the Packers in April 2023 to acquire Rodgers. The hope was that the four-time MVP and future Hall of Famer could provide the franchise with a culture change and elevate the team out of its losing ways.

When acquiring Rodgers, the Jets were set to take on the two years and $110 million he had left on his existing contract. In July of 2023, the two sides restructured the deal, converting it to a two-year, $75 million deal, with Rodgers surrendering $35 million from his original contract. The new pact was fully guaranteed.
