Aaron Rodgers’ latest comments have pissed off a ton of people.
There are a ton of people who have expressed their displeasure with Rodgers’ uncertainty about continuing his career in Green Bay after signing a three-year contract last offseason.
Rodgers addressed his future on “The Pat McAfee Show” Tuesday.
“Do I still think I can play?” Rodgers said. “Of course. Of course. Can I play at a high level? Yeah. The highest. I think I can win MVP again, in the right situation. The right situation — is that Green Bay or is that somewhere else? I’m not sure.” Rodgers also told McAfee he is not yet ready “mentally or emotionally” to make a decision on 2023.
Those comments sent Shannon Sharpe into a frenzy.
On Wednesday’s episode of “Undisputed,” the Hall of Fame tight end had a message for the Packers and their fans: “STOP LETTING Aaron Rodgers HOLD Y’ALL HOSTAGE!”

“I told you he was gonna do this. Now we talking about Aaron Rodgers, ‘Is he going to be in Green Bay? Or is he gonna be elsewhere?’ Those are the only two choices because he’s not retiring and leaving $60 million on the table. … But I don’t care where you play, you stunk your last game. If that was your last game in Green Bay you were awful.”
Sharpe also added that the QB put an emphasis on personal achievements rather than trying to get back to the Super Bowl.
“I told you about him, I know him. This is what he said [on the ‘Pat McAfee Show’]: ‘Do I think I can play? Of course. Can I play at high level? Yeah the highest. I think I can win MVP.’ Where [the hell’s] championship? See that goes to show you right there what’s important to him. … Ask Brady what he would’ve said. Brady’s thinking about championships, he’s thinking about MVP awards.”
It was just last year when Rodgers said he “definitely” planned to finish his career in Green Bay.
Here we go again with him changing his mind after a bad season.
