Aaron Rodgers Cryptic Post Sends Twitter Into A Frenzy: Is He Retiring from NFL or Leaving Green Bay?

Aaron Rodgers posted a slew of pictures on Instagram, sending the social media world into a frenzy. The Packers QB put up a long caption along with the pictures, with the major theme being around ‘gratitude’. 

The NFL community began its speculation around ‘what the post means’. It is difficult to ignore that there’s a layer of nostalgia hidden under the gratitude that Rodgers expressed. 

It is pure speculation at this point, but such a heartfelt out-pour is generally reserved for goodbyes. Rodgers’ retirement has been a matter of speculation for a while now. With this cryptic post, social media says he’ll call it quits. As one Twitter user put it, “Leaving GB or the NFL? That’s the question.”

Aaron Rodgers’ heartfelt caption

Rodgers just went through a tough time personally. That can have a major impact on his professional decisions. He first thanks Shailene Woodley, showcasing that even though the two have called it quits, Aaron appreciates her kindness and love. Woodley reportedly left Rodgers because she thought he chose football over her. But it was not a bitter ending, and the spilt was amicable, as per reports.

Love for the Quarterback room 

He goes on to thank his quarterback room compatriots in Jordan Love and Kurt Benkert. Both commented on the post reciprocating the gratitude the senior quarterback showered on social media.

He also felt grateful for all his other teammates, past or present. Rodgers calls them ‘the icing on the cake’.  Rodgers went all out with his love and told anyone reading this to “spread love and gratitude.”

Twitter got no chill 

Twitter was quick to react to such a cryptic post by the back-to-back NFL MVP. For the fans, it is speculation season since nobody knows what the quarterback situation is going to look like next for many teams. And with Aaron Rodgers providing the perfect cryptic fodder, Twitter did not disappoint. 

Aaron Rodgers to the Broncos, 49ers, or home? 

Analysts suggested that Denver will be a great fit for Rodgers. People believe they can replicate what Peyton & Denver did back in 2016. But there are rumors that the 49ers are also looking into the matter. 

If Aaron Rodgers decided to stay in football but not with the Packers, the free agency situation would turn on its head. Already, Brady’s mysterious exit and the comeback have the front offices on the edge of their seats. And if Aaron Rodgers also enters the market, this will become an off-season for the ages. 

Pat McAfee recently announced that a ‘big guest’ is ‘locked’ and ‘loaded’ for his upcoming season opener on Tuesday. Could it be Rodgers? Could it be Brady? 

Fans are unsure about the positioning of the two biggest stars in all of football. When was the last time that happened?
