Rodgers at first disagreed that all players should retire with their former teams \u2014 before seemingly acknowledging the possibility of hanging it up in Green Bay:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I understand the cool thing about it, but if I didn&#8217;t do it \u2014 would that make a difference in how I&#8217;m viewed in the Packers\u2019 eyes? When I retire, in four years, I&#8217;m going to go into the Packers Hall of Fame, may or may not get my number retired. Whether they do or not is fine,&#8221; Rodgers explained. &#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of love from me and how I feel about the team. If I do or don&#8217;t [retire a Packer], I don&#8217;t think it should make a difference.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In his final thoughts on the matter, Rodgers would ultimately leave the ball in the Packers\u2019 court:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not sure yet. If [the Packers] approach me about it, I probably would.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His retirement time frame of &#8220;four years&#8221; is interesting, to say the least \u2014 but it&#8217;s entirely possible he was simply painting a theoretical picture of when he&#8217;d call it quits.<\/p>\n<p>Many analysts have agreed that Rodgers&#8217; 2025 decision will come down to the Steelers or retirement \u2014 and now, we know where he may hang it up after what has been a Hall of Fame-worthy career.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aaron Rodgers may have been linked to the Steelers this offseason \u2014 but he recently opened up about what it would take to retire as a Packer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24178,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[239,1202,48,1453,466],"class_list":["post-24177","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-green-bay-packers","tag-aaron-rodgers","tag-green-bay","tag-green-bay-packers","tag-packers-hall-of-fame","tag-steelers"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
