Jets’ Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson celebrate Aaron Rodgers idea


Jets players clamoring for Aaron Rodgers to become their teammate began celebrating.

Wide receiver Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall took to Twitter on Monday afternoon to celebrate the idea that Rodgers could potentially become the Jets’ next quarterback.

“You should all see that smile on me rn,” Wilson tweeted with a tears emoji.

“I can finally enjoy my vacation now,” he wrote in a separate tweet.

Hall tweeted moments later, “The Cheese Head did it”, referring to the bonfire where Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner set a real cheese head on fire.

Reactions from Jets players came shortly after a tweet from Trey Wingo, who reported: “Hearing Rodgers at the Jets is over. History is about to repeat itself between New York and Green Bay. Time is indeed a flat circle.

Nevertheless, there has been no confirmation that Rodgers has made his final decision.

And while Adam Schefter said Monday afternoon on ESPN that there are “assembly instructions” Rodgers will be a Jet, he warned the quarterback has yet to tell the Jets or Packers about the news.

It’s unclear if the Jets players are privy to information the public doesn’t yet have, or if they were reacting to Wingo’s tweet about it.

If Rodgers doesn’t end up on the Jets, this moment in social media history could be compared to a player celebrating prematurely before reaching the end zone, only to fumble the ball before finishing the scoring.

If the Jets can’t land Rodgers, their options at quarterback dwindle.

Lamar Jackson might be available but it would be a high price.

In addition to the money he would command, the Jets would have to send the Ravens two first-round picks under the terms of the transition tag they placed on Jackson.
