The Packers are close to getting their star quarterback Aaron Rodgers back, even if he stays with the team for just one more season.
The news comes just after Rodgers and fellow teammate Davante Adams posted photos mimicking The Last Dance with Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that this reunion between the two football players will in fact be similar to Jordan and Pippen, as it will be their final season teaming up together.
While the Packers’ CEO Mark Murphy reportedly has told shareholders that Rodgers will be with the team well beyond the 2021 season, Schefter is stating that this will most likely be his final run with Green Bay. Interestingly, Murphy did not tell reporters whether or not he expects Rodgers to report to training camp with other Packer veterans.
Whether Rodgers will actually suit up for the Packers requires patience and waiting to see if he shows up to training camp.
