Cobb is the latest former Rodgers teammate to sign with Gang Green this offseason, joining Lazard, offensive tackle Billy Turner and backup QB Tim Boyle . Offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett is also very close to Rodgers.
From the Jets' perspective, they're married to the Rodgers experience, so whatever makes him happy and comfortable, it's worth doing -- even signing a 12-year pro in the twilight of his career. As for Rodgers, who among us wouldn't want to work with their best friends and try to get them a job if we had that kind of pull?
