The New York Jets are all in for the 2024 season after they acquired future hall-of-fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers from the Green Bay Packers before last season.
Aaron Rodgers’ season in 2023 was cut very short after an Achilles injury took him out for the entire season in Week 1 vs the Buffalo Bills.
Aaron Rodgers Could Want Brock Bowers
When Aaron Rodgers returns for the 2024 season — which is hopefully a healthy one — the Jets are willing to take star Georgia tight end Brock Bowers if Aaron Rodgers wants a tight end in the 2024 NFL Draft, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
“He’s the top tight end in the draft but it’s hard to peg where he’s going to go exactly because he’s largely considered a top-10 type player but when I talk to teams, some of them are skeptical of whether he actually goes in that range or does he fall back to say the Colts at 15, the Bengals at 18? So, he’ll go fairly high in the first round but he might not be that slam dunk, top-10 player. A lot depends on the Jets because they’ve got Aaron Rodgers, they are all in for 2024. So, if they’re doing the long play they might take an offensive tackle or something that’s not as sexy and play for the long future but they’re all in now so if Rodgers wants a tight end, he might get his guy.”
“If that tight end can become someone that turns into what Kansas City, San Francisco, what [Sam] LaPorta did last year in Detroit, those are dynamic weapons for your offense and guys that put a lot of stress on your defense because they can create mismatches. It’s hard to put a linebacker on those guys. You put a DB on one of those guys and it creates a size mismatch. You put a safety on those guys, he better be able to run, he better be able to play man coverage. The right type of tight end can be a real weapon.”
