Aaron Rodgers has been one of the most talked about NFL athletes in recent times. The Packers QB’s future with his team is uncertain and many are making assumptions regarding his career in the NFL.
Rodgers didn’t have a great last season and delivered one of his worst performances of all time. Not only that, but his attitude and candid behavior have also landed him in trouble.
With backup QB Jordan Love getting ready to get some minutes. Maybe it’s time for Rodgers to move on, as he has many options to choose from. Recently, NFL insider Ian Rapoport, featured on the Pat McAfee Show, gave an insight into Rodgers’s future with the Packers.
Rapoport pointed out that the veteran QB has interest from the Jets and the Raiders, who have shown a desire to sign him. However, this move may be a bit controversial for the Raiders as they should look at a long-term project instead of signing a QB at the back end of his career.
Regardless, Aaron Rodgers has created a massive legacy in the NFL and can do basically whatever he wants, irrespective of the repercussions. “If you’re the Las Vegas Raiders I don’t know how you turn down Aaron Rodgers if he wants to go there,” Ian Rapoport stated on the Pat McAfee Show.
Aaron Rodgers has a variety of options to choose from
The Packers weren’t able to qualify for the playoffs last season. This led to a lot of scrutiny for Aaron Rodgers, who has then taken a break from deciding his future. The Packers QB has various options to choose from.
He can either stay at the Packers as their starting QB because of his massive contract or he could choose to retire and bid goodbye to the beautiful game.
However, if he wishes to change his team, then there is added interest from the Jets and the Raiders, who will gladly add him to their roster. The Jets have a more complete squad compared to the Raiders. On the other hand, the Raiders have WR Davante Adams, who was Rodgers’s old teammate and close confidant.
Aaron Rodgers still has to make a decision regarding his future. Until then, everyone can just wait and watch and hope for a great outcome for the Super Bowl-winning QB.
