Aaron Rodgers could still be an option for the Minnesota Vikings in a very complicated scenario that obviously involves J.J. McCarthy, according to a report by Kevin Seifert.
āJ.J. McCarthy would have to demonstrate overwhelming evidence this spring that he will not be ready to play this season, either because of an injury or a complete reversal of the skills and aptitude he demonstrated during his short time in training camp last summer. Consider Rodgers a break-the-glass option in case of an emergency. Otherwise, the Vikings are committed to their plan of getting McCarthy onto the field for the 2025 season.ā
For several weeks now, multiple insiders have mentioned that Rodgers sees the Vikings as a Super Bowl contender, and that would be the reason heās not convinced about signing with the Steelers despite Mike Tomlinās strong interest.
What team is Aaron Rodgers going to?
Aaron Rodgers will be going to the Minnesota Vikings if J.J. McCarthy doesnāt show good performance during training camp and preseason. Itās important to remember that the young player is coming off a long recovery from a knee injury.
Although the Vikings front office and head coach Kevin OāConnell havenāt completely closed the door, Rodgers is taking a big risk by waiting. If McCarthy shines and the Steelers decide not to wait for him, the star could end up without a team.
