Aaron Rodgers Expects Quick Decision On Playing Future In Offseason

Dec 30, 2021 2:08 PM

Aaron Rodgers said he anticipates a quick resolution to his playing future this offseason. Rodgers left open the possibilities of returning to the Green Bay Packers, playing for another team, or retiring. 

"It won't be something where I'll drag it out for months and months," Rodgers said at the end of a lengthy answer about his future.

"I'm not going to hold the team back from anything," Rodgers said. "And once I commit -- and if it's committing to move forward here -- it will be a quick decision."

Nearly a year ago, Rodgers called his future with the Packers a "beautiful mystery." 

While Rodgers said he "wouldn't rule that out" when asked about retirement, he said: "This has been one of my favorite years of football."

"I think that I'm just enjoying this season for this season and I think playing next year will definitely be in the thought process," Rodgers said. "One of the things that obviously [Rodgers wants is] to not be a bum on the way out and to still be able to play. I think is important to me. If this year has taught me anything, it's that I still can play, I still have a love for the game, I'm still super competitive and still enjoy the process of the week."

John Lynch Accidentally Likes Tweet Trolling Jimmy Garoppolo

The future of Jimmy Garoppolo with the San Francisco 49ers has been tenuous since the team traded up in the 2021 draft and eventually selected Trey Lance. As Garoppolo has been inconsistent this season and had a tough performance in Week 16, his future remains even murkier.

But John Lynch liked a Tweet that trolled Garoppolo the day after the loss.
