“There’s going to be a lot of big surprises at Big Night Out. Aaron Rodgers is not on the docket. So, I would like everybody to know that, because I think the show has so many like real moments that are gonna be coming and I think there’s a chance people afterwards go: ‘Freaking didn’t see Aaron Rogers out there. What?’ I have not talked to Aaron Rodgers. To be clear, I think it would be a very positive reaction at that particular show if it was announced, but, see also, I haven’t talked to Aaron in weeks, months at this point.”
For several weeks, many fans and experts speculated about the possibility of the former Super Bowl champion making an announcement about the next chapter of their career at that massive event in Pittsburgh. That will not happen.
What is Aaron Rodgers future?
Aaron Rodgers’ future is currently unknown, but at the moment, his options are limited to the Pittsburgh Steelers or retirement. The Vikings are not going to sign him soon, so Minnesota is out of the race.
However, many reports suggest that Aaron will wait patiently to see how the draft unfolds and possibly even training camp, to determine whether Pittsburgh will select a quarterback or if the Vikings are not convinced by J.J. McCarthy.
