Raiders Remain Favorite in New Next-Team Odds for Rodgers

Assuming Aaron Rodgers plays in 2023, where it will be? New next-team odds are out.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – It’s Raiders, Jets and everybody else in next-team odds for Aaron Rodgers at Bet Online.

In odds that were reposted on Tuesday after a brief hiatus, the Las Vegas Raiders are -300 to be Rodgers’ team for Week 1 of the 2023 season. The New York Jets are +200. Everybody else, such as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+1400), San Francisco 49ers (+1600), Tennessee Titans (+2000) and New England Patriots (+2000), are viewed as distant long shots.

The bet is void and the money refunded if Rodgers returns to the Green Bay Packers or retires. Thus, they aren’t part of the wager, unlike the bet at DraftKings that closed on Super Bowl Eve.

“We always do this when there’s news for big quarterbacks potentially leaving,” Bet Online sportsbook manager Adam Burns said on Wednesday. “When we open these, we’re just reading articles, Twitter, looking for rumors, whether they’re true or not. But a lot of people who are going to be on this are reading those same things.

“A lot of ours is doing what anyone else would be doing – just scouring the Internet looking for different rumors, different leaks.

That means Davante Adams’ words on Twitter and from the Pro Bowl spoke volumes.

“The [social-media] trolling – I’m first-team all-troll so don’t take none of that too serious but I would love to have that and, obviously, that would be a dream scenario (and) one that I’m very familiar with,” Adams said after the all-star flag football game. “But anything you see on Twitter, that’s not a tell of anything. That’s just wishful thinking.”

Paired with the Raiders’ need at quarterback, Las Vegas would be a logical destination. The Jets, who have publicly stated they are looking for a veteran starting quarterback, would be an obvious landing spot, as well. Te

“We also look at places that make sense,” Burns continued. “Rodgers right now, we still have the Raiders as a big favorite. They’ve taken the most money – them and the Jets. Who knows with Rodgers? He’s very mysterious. That’s why there’s a lot of odds movement on these things.”

By implied probability, there’s a 75 percent chance the Raiders will land Rodgers compared to 33.3 percent for the Jets.

Burns said the bet is “pretty popular.”

“It’s obviously not like an NFL game but these kind of markets are usually pretty popular,” he said.

Derek Carr, who as expected was released by the Raiders on Tuesday, is +140 to sign with the Carolina Panthers, +150 to land with the New Orleans Saints and +300 to wind up with the Jets. The Packers are +1800.

At PointsBet, the only Rodgers-related bet is him landing with the Jets. He is the betting favorite at +200, followed by Jimmy Garoppolo at +250 and Carr and Lamar Jackson each at +400.
