Aaron Rodgers has been informed by the Minnesota Vikings that they are not interested in signing him right now. However, in a crucial turn of events, that doesnât imply there couldnât be a change in the final decision close to the start of the season, according to the latest report from Dianna Russini.
âThe Vikings have strongly considered and will continue to monitor Aaron Rodgers as an option, but theyâre not ready to commit at this point in the offseason, per sources. They understand this could lead to him signing elsewhere or retiring. J.J. McCarthyâs spring will be key. Thereâs no âinâ or âoutâ on Aaron Rodgers from Minnesota. Theyâre simply not making a decision at this time. Now, we wait to see what Rodgers wants to do.â
This means that if Rodgers wants to sign soon, his options are reduced to the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Giants. However, another alternative is to wait and see how J.J. McCarthy develops in training camp, and if the Vikings arenât convinced, maybe the former Super Bowl champion quarterback would receive the call heâs been waiting for.
Will Vikings sign Aaron Rodgers?
No. At this moment, the Vikings are not considering signing Aaron Rodgers. This information was confirmed today by Tom Pelissero, who stated that Minnesota has already informed the quarterback of this decision.
Russiniâs report differs from Pelisseroâs by emphasizing that the decision to reject Rodgers is not yet final, as it remains subject to J.J. McCarthyâs development in the months leading up to the season. Itâs important to remember that the young Michigan prospect suffered a serious knee injury.
