Aaron Rodgers hints at retirement after missing playoff spot

Aaron Rodgers hints at retirement after missing playoff spot

Fans believe Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is nearing retirement after refusing to give away his jersey following Sunday night’s defeat to the Detroit Lions.

Following Green Bay’s 20-16 defeat to the Detroit Lions which eliminated the Packers from playoff contention, Jameson Williams asked Rodgers for his game jersey – to which the 39-year-old replied: “I’m gonna hold on to this one.”

Rodgers had led Green Bay to four straight wins over the Chicago Bears, Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins and Minnesota Vikings to set up a must-win clash with Detroit to secure a spot in the playoffs.

Despite winning on the night, the Lions missed the playoffs altogether and the Seattle Seahawks claimed the NFC’s final Wild Card spot and will face the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday in the Bay Area.

NFL betting sites have the Seahawks at the longest price of +6600 with BetOnline to win the Super Bowl and the Packers would’ve presumably been slightly shorter due to Rodgers’ vast playoff experience.

Rodgers completed 17/27 passes for 205 yards at Lambeau Field with one touchdown and a decisive interception which came with just under four minutes left in the fourth quarter to seal the win for Detroit.

The four-time league MVP told reporters after the game the decision to hold onto his jersey was nothing against Jameson, as he thought it would be ‘a cool thing to give someone else’.

“I think I might have told him I’d give him a jersey when we played in Detroit but there are some special ones I’d like to keep. It was nothing against Jameson.

“I want to keep this one. It’s a night game, Lambeau, Week 18, there are certain jerseys you like holding on to. Big Sunday night game, a little bit different. It’s not keeping it [forever] it’s about maybe a cool thing to give someone else.”
