Last spring was punctuated by rumors about the future of Aaron Rodgers. The season has calmed things down. Victories too. And the player even seemed happy again in Wisconsin.
Saturday’s defeat therefore fell like a crushing blow.
Asked about his future at a press conference, Rodgers admitted that things are unclear at the moment. Only one thing seems certain.
“If I continue to play, I don’t want to be in a reconstruction project. […] There are many players whose future is uncertain here. Some decisions are going to be interesting to watch, but I’m going to talk to Brian (Gutekunst, the manager) in the next week or so, to get a bit more clarity and then think about my own future and how long I want to keep doing this. “
But will he continue to play?
“I’m still hyper-competitive, I know I can still play at a high level, so it’s going to be a tough decision,” he explained, according to ESPN. “I have to weigh a lot of things in the coming weeks. But I have so much gratitude for this city and this franchise, and such a long career here that I am proud of and grateful to all the men and women who work here, those I have come across, the coaches and the players. over the years. “
Is the question whether he still wants to play or whether he wants to play somewhere else?
“It’s hard to say right now. I don’t think it would be fair for others or for me to talk about this now. The disappointment is fresh. So I’m going to chat in the coming week and start thinking after that. “
