The New York Jets have a bit of a problem on their hands right now.
Their offensive line is being questioned and many analysts are wondering if it will be good enough to keep Aaron Rodgers standing upright during the 2023 season.
That’s why the veteran quarterback appears to be taking matters into his own hands, trying to give his team a helping hand to solve those issues once and for all.
In a very slick move, the former MVP posted a picture of him and Garrett Wilson on his Instagram story, stating ‘Always love my 17s’ and tagging both Wilson and Davante Adams.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong or strange about that.
However, if you look closer, Rodgers also happened to tag former teammate David Bakhtiari, and it was definitely not an accident.
"He is not going to send a message like that without a real meaning into it." ?

That’s why the guys at ESPN’s Get Up believe that Rodgers is definitely trying to send the Jets a message, letting them know that Bahktiari is the guy they need to solve their problem.
Rodgers and Bahktiari were teammates for many years and developed a close bond off the field as well.
Bahktiari is one of the best tackles in the game, and he’d give the Jets’ ever-struggling offensive line a major boost.
Rodgers has spoken, and the front office needs to do right by their new star, so they should at least pick up the phone to try and get a deal done.
