Jets give Aaron Rodgers another reunion with longtime Packers friend
The New York Jets are acquiring yet another player from Aaron Rodgers' reported "wish list" that was revealed in March.
ESPN"s Adam Schefter reports the team will sign former Packers receiver Randall Cobb.
In mid-March, six weeks before Rodgers was officially introduced as a member of the Jets, it was reported that the four-time MVP had given New York a list of free agents who he wanted it to acquire. Among them were a trio of longtime former teammates in Cobb, Allen Lazard and Marcedes Lewis, as well as Odell Beckham Jr.
While the Jets lost out on OBJ to the Baltimore Ravens, they quickly picked up Lazard on a four-year deal in March.
Now New York's wide receivers group is seemingly nearing completion.
The 32-year-old Cobb played parts of 10 seasons with Rodgers in Green Bay. The one-time Pro Bowler finished last season with 34 receptions for 417 yards and one touchdown on 50 targets across 13 games.
In addition to Cobb and Lazard, the Jets have also added former Packers quarterback Tim Boyle and offensive tackle Billy Turner this offseason. They also hired former Green Bay offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett.
