The Green Bay Packers are in the midst of back to back playoff appearances with Jordan Love as the starting quarterback. The decision to move on from Aaron Rodgers following the 2023 season came with a ton of scrutiny at the time.
However, it seems that Rodgers may be going through difficulties himself.
“Preparing For It” Packers Fans Erupt After Former QB Makes Retirement Statement
Our very own Robin Adams initially covered the news:
Now, it should be noted that Rodgers has said on multiple occasions that he has a very tight circle, and no one in that circle talks to the media about him.
That being said, the Daily Mailrecently reported that a source close to Rodgers has indicated that the future Hall of Fame quarterback has four teams in mind that he would like to play for if
HoiwNew York wants to move on from him and if he still wants to play next year:
“Aaron wants to play again and finish his career on his own terms and though he has mentioned he would like to continue playing with the Jets, he would love to be released and give it another go with another team.
“If the Jets keep him around, he will try to right the ship and give it one last go, but he believes he would be better used and be a better fit in Cleveland, Indianapolis or Tennessee, and he also would be interested in heading to Las Vegas.”
The Cleveland Browns, Indianapolis Colts, Tennessee Titans, or Las Vegas Raiders.

However, we first have to see Rodgers on the field in 2025. There is a real possibility that Rodgers will play his last NFL game on Sunday:
Rodgers was questioned by reporters whether the New York Jets’ season finale against the Miami Dolphins could be the last of his career, on Wednesday.
“Yeah, of course,” Rodgers answered.
Rodgers hasn’t made any final decision yet, but he says he will make one before the start of free agency in March. Rodgers is under contract with the Jets for next season, and is set to count for a $23 million cap hit.
However, the Jets are also set to hire a new head coach and general manager in the offseason after Robert Saleh and Joe Douglas, the regime that brought Rodgers to New York, were fired mid-season.
Here is a look at Rodgers’ stats in 2024:
