There is a serious risk that Aaron Rodgers will be cut this summer, and his future with the New York Jets is quite questionable. Upon his release, he will have the choice to either retire or sign with another team, which is probably going to be the San Francisco 49ers. We explain WHY in this piece.This is not a report; it’s a prediction!

Why Will the Jets Release Rodgers?

According to recent reports, Jeff Howe spoke with three NFL general managers, and they all agreed that firing Rodgers would be the wisest course of action when hiring a new head coach and general manager. The Broncos and Russell Wilson made a similar move, and they would save a lot of money if they cut him after June 1st.

Although it’s possible that the new Jets management may keep Rodgers and choose a quarterback high in the draft, it doesn’t make sense to keep him on the team given the chaos of the 2024 campaign and the fact that he is the oldest quarterback in the NFL. The Jets may have to undergo a complete retooling after cleaning house due to allegations that they are trading Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson.

Why Would the 49ers Be Interested?

This offseason, the 49ers’ biggest challenge is figuring out how to reopen their Super Bowl window. They lost to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl then to the Eagles in the NFC Championship in a two-year stretch, but 2024 was a significant setback. They have a quarterback in Brock Purdy who is a very strong quarterback who may command $60 million annually, an aging offensive line, and a receiver in Deebo Samuel who needs a new contract.

If the 49ers are able to acquire a quarterback like Rodgers at a reduced price

The Niners may be able to save money and go closer to a championship by selecting a quarterback of the future this offseason or in 2026.

Why Would Rodgers Want to Join San Francisco?

If released, Rodgers will have a lot of options, and teams like the Vikings, Giants, and Dolphins may call his name. Given that Aaron is from Northern California and traveled to California to play collegiate football, the 49ers would be a homecoming.

The 49ers have been associated with him in recent years due to their obsession with pocket passes and their desire for a top-tier game manager, who may be Rodgers.
