The only things constant in one’s life are change, evolution, and growth. That is exactly what the Green Bay Packers quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, has gone through since his arrival in the NFL during the 2005 NFL Draft. Now, ahead of the 2022 NFL season, the future Hall of Fame QB unapologetically expressed his various opinions about several topics and dropped a massive hint about his future on the football field.

On the podcast ‘Pardon My Take’, the magnetic QB of the Packers, ‘A-Rod‘ joined Dan “Big Cat” Katz and Eric Sollenberger. He answered questions and spilled the beans on whether he loves football as much as he did at the initial stage of his career. The four-time NFL MVP provided quite a philosophical view when asked about the changes he underwent over his 17-year spell in the NFL.

The Packers No. 12 said, “I think I have a better perspective about life now than I did as a 21-year-old and I have more of an appreciation and gratitude for still doing it…others you know have created this idea of what I am and what I’m about.” 

However, he acknowledged one thing, i.e. his time as an NFL quarterback is nearing a close sooner rather than later. Rodgers said, “I do realize deep down, this chapter in my life’s coming to a close soon.”

Aaron Rodgers has had a tremendous career and could retire with no regrets

Aaron Rodgers, who will turn 39 in December, is heading for his 18th season with the Green Bay Packers. In the previous season, the Super Bowl XLV MVP earned his fourth regular season MVP by racking up over 4,000 passing yards. Having had such a decorated career, he could call it a day and have no regrets.

While his form hasn’t diminished, he has done things differently off the field. Rodgers appeared on the Pat McAfee show and made several other media appearances, something that was out of his comfort zone. The Packers QB wants his friends to see a different side to himself, but he does not wish to be somebody he is not.

For him, playing as a 21-year-old is different from playing as a 38-year-old. Aaron Rodgers is the second oldest quarterback in the game, behind just Tom Brady. However, in no way does he plan to play for as long as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB.

Could that change if his form remains at its peak?
