Last season against the Detroit Lions, Aaron Rodgers indicated that he had played his final game for the Green Bay Packers. Despite extending with the Packers last offseason, the 40-year-old quarterback will unlikely play for Green Bay in the 2023 season, as the Jets have recently approached A-Rod for a potential trade. Meanwhile, American rapper Lil Wayne recently came out and begged Rodgers to leave his team, i.e. the Packers.
On the ‘I AM ATHLETE’ YouTube channel, Lil Wayne and former Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall had a chat regarding A-Rod’s situation with the Packers. And Wayne made his stance on the whole Rodgers situation clear.
