Aaron Rodgers could have given up and resigned himself to not winning the Super Bowl with the Pittsburgh Steelers. That was Mike Florioās perception of the veteran quarterback during an interview with 93.7 The Fan.
āThey always have a camera close to the action and they show you the quarterback. The Bengalsā game, he look irritated the whole time. On Sunday Night against the Chargers, he had more of an overall attitude of resignation. And was it, āitās not our nightā, or is it āitās not our yearā, or is it āIām just done and Iām not going to get what I thought I was going to get here in Pittsburgh. Weāre just not a playoff team. Weāre not good enough to contend with these other playoff teamsā. I just feel like he is accepting something. He definitely had just kind of an acceptance that seemed like he was recognizing, āThatās all folksā.ā
The Steelers have lost three of their last four games with enormous inconsistency. For example, the defense had a debacle against the Green Bay Packers, and then the offense was terrible in the game against the Chargers.
Is Aaron Rodgers retiring from football?
Aaron Rodgers could retire from football if Florioās theory turns out to be true. Even though the quarterback has shown he still has the potential to be an NFL quarterback at 41 years old, the wear and tear of a full season and constant training could take a toll on him if there is no success at the end of the road.
Itās important to remember that before the 2025 season, Rodgers took a long time to decide whether he would play or not after the New York Jets showed him the door.
Once he became a free agent, many rumors linked him to the Los Angeles Rams if Matthew Stafford left the team. That didnāt happen. After that, reports indicated that the Vikings could sign him, although head coach Kevin OāConnell preferred to bet on J.J. McCarthy. In the end, both the Steelers and Rodgers ran out of options and decided to give each other a chance.
