A stunner- #Metra is signing former Jets QB Aaron Rodgers, a source tells Patch.

It’s a 1-year, $72,014 deal with up to $63,000 in overtime incentives.

🎶Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head,
Found my way downstairs & drank a cup, & looking up, I noticed I was late.

Found my coat & grabbed my hat,
Made the Metra in seconds flat,
Found my way upstairs & had a smoke,
& somebody spoke & I went into a dream🎶
