The NFL offseason is in full swing and the New York Jets have made a big splash by signing former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb. Cobb, who spent eight seasons with the Packers, is reuniting with his former quarterback Aaron Rodgers in New York.
Cobb was an integral part of the Packers offense for many years, and he was a key contributor to the team’s success over the past decade. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2014 and has been one of the most productive wide receivers in the league since entering the league in 2011. In his eight seasons with the Packers, Cobb caught 470 passes for 5,524 yards and 41 touchdowns. He also added another 1,242 yards and seven touchdowns on the ground.
Cobb’s signing with the Jets is a big move for the team as they look to improve their offense. He will join a receiving corps that already includes Jamison Crowder, Breshad Perriman, and Denzel Mims. With Cobb in the mix, the Jets now have a deep and experienced group of pass-catchers.
The reunion of Cobb and Rodgers is also an exciting development for Jets fans. The two were part of a potent passing attack in Green Bay and they will now be reunited in New York. Rodgers is coming off an MVP season and he should benefit from having a familiar target like Cobb to throw to.
The signing of Randall Cobb is a great move by the Jets and it should help them improve their offense in 2021. His experience and chemistry with Aaron Rodgers should help the team take a step forward this season. It will be exciting to see how Cobb and Rodgers perform together in New York this year.
