The New York Jets could soon be Super Bowl contenders as the kid who grew up in California will now be headed to the Big Apple.
The longtime Packers quarterback said Wednesday that his “intention” is to play for the Jets in 2023, which means he is simply waiting on Green Bay to trade him.
Even without an official trade on the books, the news immediately prompted oddsmakers to give the Jets a boost in their odds to win the Super Bowl.

By last Wednesday, the Jets were the most-bet team to win the Super Bowl at FanDuel and PointsBet. The Jets are your Super Bowl darlings that could win some people boat-loads of money as the season draws closer.
