Jets fans are anxiously awaiting any update on whether the team will complete a trade for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
However, Jets general manager Joe Douglas was taped at a WFAN fan event where he declared the future Hall of Famer will join Gang Green.
Douglas was asked by host Boomer Esiason if Rodgers is coming to the Jets. The fourth-year GM laughed as the crowd wooed at the question. Douglas shook his head slightly and answered, "he's going to be here."
The response from the crowd and Esiason was, as you would expect, loud.
A deal between the Packers and Jets have reportedly been ongoing for quite some time and heightened once Rodgers said on The Pat McAfee Show back in March that he intends to play for Gang Green.
Since then, Douglas told SNY's Jeane Coakley during the NFL annual meetings in Arizona that he was "optimistic" a deal for Rodgers will get done.
Otherwise, it's been a bit quiet on the Rodgers-Jets front with fans circling April 28, the start of the NFL Draft -- as when many believe a deal will finally get done.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
