Now that the season is over, Rodgers is building suspense over his future plans with the Packers. Although he mentioned he would announce his plans soon, but it’s close to free agency, and Rodgers is yet to reveal his plans. Now that he is delaying the process, many taunt the 38-year-old as an attention seeker.
Charles Barkley calls Aaron Rodgers a ‘pretty girl’ who seeks attention
One of those who have brutally taunted the Green Bay star is the NBA legend, Charles Barkley. Barkley during an appearance with Waddle & Silvy on ESPN 1000 Podcast, took a massive shot at Aaron Rodgers, comparing him to a “pretty girl”.
“I think he’s the pretty girl that you gotta tell her she’s pretty every day. I’m starting to think that.” Barkley said. Was it a cheap shot taken by the basketball legend, or did it hold a certain degree of truth?
Rodgers before, Super Bowl LVI in The Pat McAfee Show revealed that he would come at McAfee’s show to announce his plans. However, in his following appearances in the show, he has only built more suspense rather than quench the curiosity of his fans.
