NFL Insider Claims There's Only One NFL Team Aaron Rodgers Will Play for If He Doesn't Retire
The Green Bay Packers are once again facing uncertainty as Aaron Rodgers has yet to announce his decision for the upcoming season. Will he stay with the team, demand a trade to another team, or retire altogether? According to ESPN insider Adam Schefter, Rodgers has already eliminated one option.
«My sense is there continues to be more and more signs about him leaving Green Bay,» Schefter said, via Bleacher Report. «And I think in the end, my sense is ultimately it will come down to whether he wants to play elsewhere, which would be really the New York Jets, or whether he wants to retire. To me, those are the two most logical options and the two most likely scenarios here. But again, we have not heard from Aaron Rodgers himself.
«We have heard the Packers talk about Jordan Love and how much belief they have in him and how much progress he's made. And I think he's their quarterback of the future here, clearly. And they continue to wait for the decision from Aaron Rodgers, who knows that at some point in time, he's said the Packers have had conversations about him with other teams. And that's why I believe that it's going to either be the New York Jets or retirement in the end. And we'll show how this shakes out, but there's nothing yet from Aaron Rodgers. It has to come soon.
«We are basically under two weeks until the start of the league year. We await his word and at some point, something's going to have to happen here because Derek Carr's waiting to see where's Aaron Rodgers wants to go. These teams need decisions from the quarterbacks and everything right now is being hung up while we wait to hear from No. 12.»

During a recent episode of SportsCenter, Schefter revealed that if Rodgers decides to play but not with the Packers, he will demand a trade to the New York Jets. And if the Jets cannot make it happen, he will retire from the NFL. This puts the Packers in a tough spot once again, waiting for Rodgers to make up his mind before they can make any moves for the future.
While Rodgers is undoubtedly a great quarterback, the constant speculation surrounding his future every offseason can be tiresome for the organization. While the team would undoubtedly miss him if he does leave or retire, there may also be a sense of relief in no longer having to go through this every year.
