        Aaron Rodgers Still Considering Retirement

        By Jared Smola | Updated on Thu, Apr 17 2025 5:31 PM UTC

        QB Aaron Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee Show that he's still considering retiring. He added that he has remained in touch with teams about playing this season but is currently focused on his personal life. "I’m open to anything and attached to nothing," Rodgers said. "Retirement could still be a possibility."

        What They're Saying

        Rodgers: "I'm in a different phase of my life, I'm 41 years old, I'm in a serious relationship, I have personal commitments I've made... and people in my inner circle battling difficult stuff. To make a commitment to a team is a big thing."

        2025 Fantasy Football Impact

        So NFL and fantasy teams will remain in limbo with Rodgers for the time being. We got the feeling from Rodgers' interview with McAfee that there's a real chance he decides to retire.

        If the Steelers are getting similar vibes, it'd raise their urgency to add a QB in the first round of next week's draft.

        Fantasy drafters should steer clear of Rodgers until we get a more concrete update on his 2025 plans.
