After being the subject of months-long sagas for two straight offseasons, Aaron Rodgers seemed to definitely commit to the Packers by signing a lucrative extension in 2022. But only a year later, here we are again.

The 39-year-old quarterback is contemplating his future, with all options apparently on the table. Rodgers could either decide to stay in Green Bay, request a trade elsewhere or even retire from the sport.

He recently went through a darkness retreat to try and find some clarity, but stillneeds more time to make a decision. However, it looks like he has already started to imagine what his future outside Green Bay would be like.
