'What are you doing bro?' Aaron Rodgers said to Randall Cobb after the penalty. 'This ain't 2014.'
Cobb tied a career-low with 375 receiving yards in 2021. The 33-year-old former Pro Bowler then missed four games a season ago because of injuries. But the Jets weren't just interested in bringing in Cobb for what he can do on the field.
Off of it, Cobb was also a"priceless" addition to the Jets locker room, head coach Robert Saleh said. The 13th-year wide receiver not only has experience catching passes from Rodgers but with playing in first-year Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett's system. Hackett was previously offensive coordinator with the Packers when Rodgers and Cobb were there. Saleh thinks Cobb's knowledge of the playbook and veteran presence will be beneficial to the entire position group, which includes reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson.
"When a player's hearing it for the first time, they're like, 'God, I'm not getting it,'" Saleh said, via the team website."And then, here comes the vet to step in and say, 'Well, let me break it down to you in another way.' And players speaking to players just always comes off a little bit differently. It comes off a lot more powerful.
