Jets Rookie Already Has A Sweet Deal With Aaron Rodgers
The New York Jets understand how important the 2024 campaign is for the organization. They've missed the playoffs for 13 straight years. There was plenty of excitement heading into the 2023 season but that quickly went up in flames when Aaron Rodgers had a season-ending Achilles injury.
General manager Joe Douglas made sure to upgrade the offensive side of the ball in a major way. It started in free agency when they signed Tyron Smith, Mike Williams, and John Simpson before trading for Morgan Moses.
He continued to add talent in the 2024 NFL Draft, selecting OT Olu Fashanu and WR Malachi Corley with their first two picks.
Rodgers has already been in contact with these rookies and one player talked about a deal he already has with the 40-year-old quarterback.
Jets News: Malachi Corley Has An Offer To Stay With Aaron Rodgers
May 3 was Day 1 of rookie minicamps for the Jets, giving the team and fans their first look at the new additions.
Corley was selected with the 65th overall pick and is expected to have an immediate role on offense in 2024. Last year at Western Kentucky, Corley had 79 receptions for 984 yards and 11 touchdowns.
After the practice, he spoke with the media about a deal he got from Rodgers. Corley said that Rodgers offered to let him stay in his guest house and he plans on accepting the offer.
The Western Kentucky product has been consistently texting Rodgers since getting drafted. This showcases how both sides want to hit the ground running.
The 22-year-old playmaker knows that Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in the history of the game and wants to take full advantage of being his teammate to learn as much as possible.
Getting connected off the field makes the transition onto the field that much easier.
