Veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers said Tuesday he’s “pretty sure” the upcoming 2025 season will be his last in the NFL. The 41-year-old made the comment during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, offering a rare moment of clarity about his football future. After spending most of his career with the Green Bay Packers and a brief, injury-shortened stint with the New York Jets, Rodgers now finds himself preparing for one more run with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Rodgers signed a one-year deal with Pittsburgh this offseason, a move he said aligns with his intention to finish his career on his own terms. He emphasized that he doesn’t feel the need to prove anything and is at peace with what he’s accomplished. While he’s focused on giving everything to this season, Rodgers also joked about quietly disappearing from the spotlight once it’s over—comparing his planned exit to a character vanishing in a movie. If this is indeed his final season, it will mark the end of one of the most decorated and fascinating careers in NFL history.
