If there's a way he can get Rodgers," Namath . "I'm a big Andy Pettitte Jersey Rodgers fan, and I noticed that he wears number 12 of course. Man, if we get him, is he still going to wearing number 12? Because that number was retired years ago" Namath was then informed that it would be up to him if the No. 12 were to be unretired."Well, it's on ownership. It's different ownership. Different people. And I'd sure love Rodgers if he's there," Namath said. "Yeah, Ihim to wear his number. We established ourselves and we've got a real respect for our numbers, and Aaron Rodgers, God almighty, yeah! It'd be great to have him in New York."Rodgers was asked on whether or not he would take the No. 12 in New York. He Wade Boggs Jersey said he hadn't made that decision just yet. "With respect to the emotions, I think there'll be time for all those conversations down the road," Rodgers said.Rodgers pointed to former Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett as a reason he's joining the Jets. The Giancarlo Stanton Jersey former head coach signed on to be New York's new offensive coordinator this offseason."There's a lot of reasons why the Jets are attractive, but there's one coach who has meant as much to me as any coach that I've ever had, and he happens to be the coordinator there," Rodgers said.
