The Vikings, in a coordinated effort to get the phrase out, have made it clear that they’re not pursuing quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Minnesota’s exit from the dialog reportedly will do nothing to alter Rodgers’s timeline.
Through Adam Schefter of ESPN.com, an unnamed supply “monitoring Rodgers’ potential choice” for the approaching season stated Rodgers “is in no rush at all.”
That’s his prerogative, however the silence turns into exhausting. Normally, it’s his behavior of claiming an excessive amount of that turns individuals off. This time round, the truth that he’s saying nothing is creating the consternation.
In some unspecified time in the future, the groups linked to Rodgers have to determine whether or not to maintain ready or to maneuver on. The Giants have introduced in three veterans for visits not too long ago: Russell Wilson, Joe Flacco, and Jameis Winston. The Steelers haven’t been linked to anybody apart from Rodgers.
Pittsburgh’s fowl within the hand is likely to be Mason Rudolph. They may signal one other veteran later, or they will draft somebody.
Rodgers may nonetheless find yourself retiring. Or he may wait to see whether or not a starter on a short-list Tremendous Bowl contender will get injured.
Regardless, this isn’t the standard scenario. And Rodgers, as we’ve realized, shouldn’t be the standard quarterback. Certainly, with regards to Rodgers, it’s the weird that has change into the standard.
