Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers' plans for the future were a major storyline during the offseason leading into the 2021 season and his return to the team has gone well on the field, but it hasn't led to any decisions about what he'll do in 2022. Rodgers told reporters on Wednesday that he has not made [more]

Retiring is the worst option for the Packers. Playing another year or two is the best option. They can re-work his 22 deal to minimize the cap hit.
Trading him for a few picks is the second best.
Letting him walk for nothing be it retirement or as a FA is the worst.

I would rather him retire than play somewhere else. I hope he sticks around for 3-4 more years. I know he’s got it in him.

He will request a trade. I hope I am wrong, as he could probably play another 5 years at this level, especially with the rules in place to protect quarterbacks. Nevertheless, he is not the type of person to forgive or get over things easily. This isn’t a criticism of his personality, but rather an observation on how he is wired. He’ll likely use the Packers drafting Jordan Love as fuel for his fire until he retires. It’s not any different than him using the fact that Alex Smith was taken over him as fuel. It’s just who he is. Now, the question I ask is will the Packers comply? He is under contract next year. GB could drag this out again, which I suspect they would.

He's trying to create the narrative that HE has the power to decide. Matt and Gutey drafted Love, because Aaron can be an insufferable douche. They were sick of dealing with Aaron's shit.

Aaron has orchestrated this entire situation from day 1 to prevent the team from ditching him. From becoming a Bucks owner to demanding that giant contract, his whole purpose was to make it harder for the team to move on from him.

Now he wants to act like they're begging him to stay. 😄

Love has been getting all the reps in practice, since Thanksgiving. Dude is gonna be ready.

I have to admit that I am catching the sentimental bug watching the recent interviews with Rodgers and with the TD record. It would be great to have him play for a couple more years at this caliber and retire as a Packer. The cost of that extension may be the long term success of the Packers team with Love though. Maybe that is ok if Aaron can get them back to the Super Bowl.

What is odd is I think at his age that a coach like Lafleur is the best situation for Aaron. The money ever making sense and still being a contender seems like a non-existent situation unfortunately for Aaron staying with the Packers. I think this is all just media clicks. Aaron has too many new chips on his shoulder if traded to retire. He will want to set other goals and definitely play against Green Bay before his career comes to a close.
