Aaron Rodgers Has Been Rather Ordinary This Season

The Green Bay Packers had a choice, either to go for Davante Adams and rope in a new quarterback, or keep Aaron in the unit and spend money on new receivers. They ended up taking the second option and it would be fair to say that the decision hasn’t paid off.

As far as Green Bay are concerned, they showered cash on Aaron by giving him a $150 million extension, but are now facing pressure from the fans who want them to bench the reigning MVP for Jordan Love.

Moreover, there have been rumors that because his current season is going badly, Rodgers might contemplate retiring from the sport quite soon. Amidst all this, another massive rumors has emerged, courtesy The Athletic’s Jeff Howe.
