Aaron Rodgers remains in complete silence and has not communicated to the Pittsburgh Steelers what his final decision about his future in the NFL will be. Amid so much uncertainty, retirement is a real possibility for the veteran.
A few weeks ago, during an interview on The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers admitted that problems within his inner circle are the reason why he can’t commit to any team at the moment.
Given this situation, the former Super Bowl champion with the Packers was very clear and said that if the Steelers or any other franchise decide to move on due to the delay, he has no problem with it and won’t take it personally.
What is Aaron Rodgers’ future?
Aaron Rodgers has once again sparked rumors about his future with a surprise appearance at the Kentucky Derby. The quarterback was seen relaxed and enjoying the spectacular event at Churchill Downs, while social media remains in a frenzy as no one knows what will happen with his career.
As expected, many fans and experts are wondering why the Steelers are still waiting on Rodgers when the player doesn’t seem to show any urgency and appears to be enjoying himself off the field.
Is Aaron Rodgers retiring?
Additionally, considering that the star confirmed he is in a serious relationship in his personal life, rumors have also suggested that his presence at the Kentucky Derby could be a sign that retirement might be knocking at the door. In fact, during the well-known interview with McAfee, Rodgers was upfront in mentioning that this is part of his thought process.
“I’ll set it all straight. I have no problem. I’m on a different phase of my life. I’m 41 years old. I’m in a serious relationship. I have off the field stuff going on that requires my attention. I have a couple of people in my inner circle who are really battling some difficult stuff. It’s been an interesting break for me. So, I have a lot of things that are taking my attention and have, beginning really in January, away from football. To make a commitment to a team is a big thing.”
