Wed Mar 05 18:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Raiders Eye Rodgers While Giants Analyst Baffled by Potential Pursuit
**Las Vegas, NV** – While ESPN analyst Dan Graziano questions the logic, the Las Vegas Raiders are openly expressing interest in veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who is set to become a free agent. Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby stated on his podcast, “The Rush Podcast,” that he hopes Rodgers joins the team in 2025, calling it “legendary.”
The Raiders are actively searching for a quarterback after a disappointing 4-13 season. General Manager John Spytek has indicated the team will explore all options, including veteran quarterbacks like Sam Darnold and Russell Wilson. Previous interest in Matthew Stafford, before his contract restructuring with the Los Angeles Rams, further highlights this aggressive pursuit of quarterback talent.
Meanwhile, reports indicate the New York Giants have also shown interest in Rodgers, despite ESPN analyst Dan Graziano expressing significant skepticism about such a move. Rodgers’ recent tenure with the New York Jets, marked by a torn Achilles and a subpar 2024 season (5-12 team record, 25th in QBR), raises questions about his current capabilities. His 3,897 passing yards and 28 touchdowns, coupled with low rankings in completion percentage and yards per attempt, paint a mixed picture of his performance. Regardless, his free agency is set to generate significant interest across the league.
