A user posted an interesting comment about the power of manifestation.
So if Rodgers believes in the power of words and manifestation, does that mean these words will make his retirement come to fruition?

Will Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady retire after NFL 2022?
Tom Terrific, and A-Rod, are two greats in the game. They have been a strong pillar for their teams for over two decades. The superstars have been tight-lipped about their decision to retire. One reason is it may take away the attention from the game.
Tom Terrific is already 45, and he is the oldest player in the 2022 season. Aaron Rodgers has not reached 40, and his fitness levels are of top standards. Currently, A-Rod is the fourth oldest player in the league. Meanwhile, the one common point that connects these stars is their aim for the Super Bowl crown. A lot of users reacted to A-Rod’s unconfirmed retirement news on Twitter.

Wow I was worried there for a second until I saw it was Aaron Rodger and not Aaron Rodgers. I wish Aaron Rodger all the best in his future retirement.
