Aaron Rodgers isn't the only former NFC North star joining the New York Jets' backfield this season.
in June despite coming off his fourth consecutive season of rushing for at least 1,100 yards. His 4.4 yards per carry, however, represented a career low, and he had been due to earn $10.4 million and count $14 million against the salary cap.
Cook told"The Dan Patrick Show" on Friday that there were"about five" teams pursuing him. The Jets, however, stood out due to Rodgers, who on Wednesday agreed toover two years that helped create space for the team to bring on another marquee talent. "It's a unique situation because I think they're building something special over there," Cook said on"Good Morning Football.""When you look at it, you always want to be around a great QB, you always want to be around somebody you can pick his brain and just learn from. A-Rod is a four-time MVP. So, just being around a guy like that, you can learn a lot more and just develop as a player. That's what I'm looking to do.
Starting running back Breece Hall is not practicing with the team as he continues to work his way back from a torn anterior cruciate ligament suffered last October. Jets coach Robert Saleh has maintained that any interest in Cook is not a reflection on Hall or the second-year ball carrier's health. "We’ll never say no to a great player, if it’s an opportunity to present yourself in the right way, so I’m excited about and his visit," Saleh said in a news conference Thursday."It’s really just been able to have a conversation, get hands on him. I know he’s got some things that medically that would have to check out and all that stuff, but again, excited about his visit and a chance to sit down and talk with him.
