Good morning, Sports fans! It’s Davey Mac back again with another exhilarating Sports Report! We got baseball and basketball! The football and the hockey! But first! Did you hear what Jets owner Woody Johnson said about getting superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers to the Jets?

Apparently, Johnson told paparazzi in California “we’ll find out” when asked about whether Aaron Rodgers was coming to the Jets. Not a lot to go on, Jets fans. But at least it’s something. We’re told that Woody personally visited Rodgers (along with his son Chris and Jets head coach Robert Saleh).

So it looks like the Jets are going full steam ahead with Mr. Rodgers. Hey, you can’t blame them. The Jets have a top-tier defense and acquiring a QB like Rodgers could realistically get them to the Super Bowl. They can’t start the season with either Zach Wilson or Mike White…they need a big-time player…and Rodgers fits the bill. I’m Davey Mac…that’s my Sports Two Cents!
