Aaron Rodgers is set to be released by the Jets, with potential interest from teams like the Giants who are in need of a quarterback. While the Giants initially targeted Matthew Stafford, who opted to stay with the Rams, they see Rodgers as a short-term option at 41 years old. The plan may involve drafting a rookie quarterback like Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders, allowing them to learn under Rodgers while he leads the team. The overall market for Rodgers remains uncertain, but the Vikings are also viewed as a likely fit for his services.
The Giants saw Stafford, 36, as having at least two good seasons in him, and acquiring him would have mitigated the need to select a quarterback with the No. 3 pick in next month's NFL draft.
It remains to be seen what sort of market is out there for Rodgers. The Vikings make some sense, if they want an experienced and capable starter to hold the fort.
