Aaron Rodgers may have spent 18 seasons with the Green Bay Packers, but he seems to be adjusting to his new life with the New York Jets pretty well so far.
He has been enjoying the Big Apple, and he has taken in a Taylor Swift concert as well as a Broadway performance in recent weeks.
In fact, the future Hall-of-Fame quarterback says that his time with the Jets has been a dream, via SNF on NBC on Twitter.

Rodgers led the Packers to their most recent Super Bowl championship in 2010, which was just his third season as a starter, but since then, it has been nothing but disappointment for the iconic franchise and its iconic signal-caller.
Over the past couple of years, Rodgers was seemingly at odds with Packers management, and he also made some headlines off the field for the wrong reasons.
Meanwhile, the Jets have been a laughingstock for much of the past half-century.
Even when they reached the NFC Championship Game in 2009 and 2010, they weren’t quite as great a team as Rex Ryan, their head coach, wanted everyone to think they were.
Now, New York at least has the talent on paper to contend for a spot in Super Bowl LVIII, as they have Rodgers, capable wide receivers in Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard, as well as a defense that ranked fourth in points and total yards allowed last season.
Coming out of the AFC will be difficult, as there are plenty of teams in the conference that are or at least think they’re championship-caliber, but the Jets now have the men to compete with just about anyone.
