For what seems like a long time now, free agency has been open, and the NFL community is still anticipating Aaron Rodgers‘ next move or whether he will retire and enjoy some beach time.
Over the past week, the 41-year-old quarterback has been linked to three teams: the Giants, Steelers, and Vikings. A decision might be made at any time.
NFL Inisder’s bold claim for Aaron Rodgers
Domonique Foxworth of ESPN stated on Monday that Rodgers should play “for free,” or at the very least, the league minimum, if he signs with the Vikings.
This is how he explained it: “If I am Aaron Rodgers, I would go play for the Vikings for free,” Foxworth said on his podcast. “League minimum, sign me up. First, I would publicly make some big statement about how humbled I was by the experience last year… Call the coach and tell him? I feel like you need to sell yourself to the team. Maybe you don’t do it publicly, maybe you do it privately.”
“If I’m Aaron Rodgers, I would go play for the Vikings for FREE…I think it would really benefit him to go somewhere else and make over his image.” – @Foxworth24

He went on to say:
“The reason why I come to this opinion is, and it’s easy for me to say that he don’t need any more money. Easy for me to say. Maybe he does want some more money. I’m not going to begrudge anybody for wanting more money, and he can probably get more money. But, I think what’s more valuable to him right now and what should be, in my mind, is rewriting the end of his career.
“Because the end of his career is going to be the lasting taste we have in our mouth. Because it was such an enormous, sloppy, embarrassing mess. Most quarterbacks, [at] the end of their career, are playing poorly. … But for him, he ended it in such a publicly bad way that I think it would really benefit him to go somewhere else and kind of makeover his image. There’s risk there, but I think it’s the best situation to do it.”
Given that Rodgers will undoubtedly be hoping for one final large salary, that is unlikely to occur.
