A few days after creating speculation about his future with the Green Bay Packers, Aaron Rodgers said he has reason to think he will be back with the only team he has ever played for during his 16-year NFL career.

"I don't think that there is any reason why I wouldn't be back," Rodgers said on The Pat McAfee Show. "But look, there's not many absolutes in this business. So to make an absolute statement about something that is not an absolute, I didn't do it. And I guess that's why it went kind of nuts."

Rodgers still has three seasons left on his current contract, but the deal has reached the point where the Packers could now move on and gain salary-cap space.
