Derek Carr didn’t appear to get the message, so Nick Mangold is trying again with Aaron Rodgers.
As reports emerged Tuesday that Rodgers has had talks with the Jets because the longtime Packers quarterback mulls his NFL future, Mangold, the previous seven-time Pro Bowl Jets center, took to Twitter to attempt to get Rodgers’ attention.
“I’m going to do this again. First time didn’t work out… What’s the word @AaronRodgers12? Nobody tells me anything so I figure I’d go to the source,” Mangold wrote. “Hit me up in case you need a realtor.”
The tweet got here two days after Mangold used the identical schtick with Carr, who ended up signing with the Saints on Monday.
“What’s the word @derekcarrqb? Nobody tells me anything so I figure I’d go to the source. Hit me up in case you need a realtor,” Mangold wrote to Carr.
Trey Wingo first reported after midnight that the Jets and Rodgers “had conversations” on Monday.
Rodgers, 39, received permission to talk with the Jets, based on NFL Network.
Rodgers, who’s due roughly $59 million this yr, has not yet decided if he desires to retire, play a nineteenth season with the Packers or play for one more team.
He recently launched into a “darkness retreat,” by which he spent 4 days in complete darkness partly to contemplate his next move.
While Rodgers said last week on the “Aubrey Marcus Podcast” that he has reached a “deep calm” after the retreat, he has yet to disclose his plans.
Mangold, 39, spent his entire 11-year profession with the Jets and was inducted into their Ring of Honor in the course of the 2022 season.
