With a bunch of teams looking to fill that QB spot, Rodgers has quite a few options.
With his talent and ability to drive the team to success, Rodgers will be an x-factor to any team that ropes him. While many can benefit from his services, a lot of the teams already have their established QB1s on long-term contracts.
What’s next for Aaron Rodgers?
With Tom Brady announcing his retirement, the Bucs will be on the look for a replacement. In Aaron Rodgers, they could have the closest replacement to Brady. In terms of magnitude, experience, and locker room presence he will definitely fit the role.

When asked if he has any news to share, Rodgers took a moment, grinned, and lined up a swing. While hitting the golf ball, he said, “Not going to San Fran,” which made the crowd chuckle. The fan then followed the statement by saying Rodgers would look great with a Cowboys star on his helmet. The crowd chuckled at this statement again while Rodgers hit another ball with a grin on his face.
While his future remains a mystery, his fans will hope he doesn’t pull a Brady and hang his cleats just yet.
