Most of the free agents available have agreed to sign with one team or another this week in the NFL. But a few significant free agents remain unsigned, and one of them is the ancient quarter of Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers.
He leaves the New York Jets after two lamentable seasons with them, and of course, there have been a lot of speculation on the uniform he will wear this fall. It was first linked to the Rams of Los Angeles, and after the Rams, decided to keep Matthew Stafford, Rodgers was linked to the New York Giants and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
However, there is always a chance that Rodgers sign with the Vikings of Minnesota, which would put fans of packers and the whole state of the Wisconsin in a torture room. After all, Brett Favre, his predecessor to Green Bay, left Green Bay in 2008, spent some time with the jets, then ended his career as a member of the Vikings.
Favre was invited by Will Cain to an eminent network of new cables what he would say to Rodgers the possibility of going to the Vikings, and he practically encouraged the MVP Quadruple to do so.
“By all means, sign with them. They have obtained a very good football team. They are busy almost all positions,” Favre said On Fox News. “They arrived at the playoffs last year. They got a great fans base, a bit like packers. If you have the opportunity, it’s a good place to win. Of course, you have to play packers then.”
The arrival of Favre to Green Bay in 1992 after a season with the Falcons of Atlanta ended a long period of drought for packers and did them again. But his time with the hated Vikings was not as fruitful – they made the playoffs in 2009 and lost in the NFC championship match in the New Orleans, and the following year, they won only six games.
Today, the Vikings have a talented team, in particular in attack, which went 14-3 and almost finished first in the NFC North with Sam Darnold in quarter in 2024. But it seems that they are determined to go with JJ McCarthy, the choice n ° 10 of the NFL recovery last year.
If Rodgers follows in the footsteps of Favre and sticks it with packers fans playing for the Vikings this fall, he will have to prepare for the nasty reception he will get when they go to Lambeau Field to play the packers.
