Rodgers stated he would let the world learn about his determination to play or retire in 2023 after rising from the tender cocoon of enlightenment (endarkenment?). Which makes this video posted by former NFL large receiver Brandon Marshall to his Instagram tonight actually awkward.
“So I wished to be the primary to say, ‘Salute to Aaron Rodgers for an exceptional profession.’ You’re one of many best,” Marshall tells the digicam. “Me personally? You’re my favourite quarterback ever. Favourite. Aaron Rodgers, congratulations on an exceptional profession. You gained a Tremendous Bowl…hell, I by no means even make it to the playoffs.

And if that’s how Tom Brady reacted to getting scooped about his personal retirement, picture how effectively Aaron Rodgers, Mr. Crucial Thinker himself, goes to deal with it. Can’t wait to right here what Joe Rogan thinks of all this.
