“Aaron Glenn, to my understanding, is open to it,” Rapoport said about Rodgers’ potential return to the Jets. “Rodgers as well. Expect those conversations to ramp up in the coming weeks.”

Rodgers is only under contract for one more season with the Jets. He carries a $23.5 million cap hit, according to Spotrac.

The quarterback started all 17 games for the Jets, posting a 5-12 record. He completed 63% of passes and threw for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
