Aaron Rodgers is licking his lips at the prospect of playing with new Jets receiver Malachi Corley next season, head coach Robert Saleh has revealed.
Corley, the West Kentucky receiver who has drawn comparisons with San Francisco 49ers star Deebo Samuel, was selected by New York with the 65th overall pick in the third round of the NFL Draft on Friday.
Straight after the Jets made their choice, star quarterback Rodgers posted an eyes emoji on his X account to seemingly endorse the pick, before sending a text to Saleh to express his excitement at playing with the 22-year-old.
'Already got a text, he’s excited,' Saleh said about Rodgers' thoughts on the team drafting Corley.
The New York coach added about his new receiver: 'He’s elite with the ball in his hands. He’s an angry runner. He obviously calls himself the "YAC KING" and he’s deserving of it. We’ll get him here.
