NY Jets fans celebrated the official announcement that the Aaron Rodgers trade had been finalized on Monday. It was a moment of pure jubilation and unbridled euphoria for fans of the organization.

After enduring years of misery and over a decade of failing to reach the postseason, Jets fans are understandably excited about their team acquiring one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history.

But the fans aren't the only ones who should be celebrating. Jets players should, and seemingly are, thrilled about the impending arrival of their newest teammate. Some should be even happier than others as well.

Essentially every player on the Jets' roster benefits from the Rodgers trade, but these four players stand to gain the most from the acquisition.

4. Breece Hall, RB, NY Jets

Breece Hal was the Jets' offense last year. Prior to his injury, Hall ranked top 10 in the NFL in scrimmage yards despite playing 50 percent or more snaps in just four of his seven games.

With Hall, the Jets' offense was one of the most explosive in the league, in spite of their shaky quarterback play. Once Hall went down, it became very apparent how dreadful the Jets' offense was.

But things should be different in 2023. Aaron Rodgers has replaced Zach Wilson in what might be one of the single greatest glow-ups in NFL history. Everyone around Rodgers should benefit, but just imagine what Hall will be capable of.

Hall was one of the best and most explosive running backs in football, with defenses stacking the box against him. With a future Hall of Famer at QB, Hall could be All-Pro bound if he stays healthy.
