With the Packers' 2021 season firmly in the rearview mirror, the organization’s focus has already turned to the future of Aaron Rodgers. While some think the reigning MVP has already played his final game in Green Bay, teammate Aaron Jones believes that the 38-year-old quarterback will be back with the Packers in 2022.
“I've heard what everybody else has heard, what they're reading,” Jones said Tuesday on NFL Total Access Live. “But I think he'll be there, in my heart. Green Bay, I can't imagine him anywhere else, that's where he's been his whole career. I just can't picture him anywhere else. I think we had a lot of fun this year. I hope to have him back, and I believe in my heart he'll be back.”
Rodgers is fresh off of another MVP-caliber season that saw him throw for 4,115 yards, 37 touchdowns and just four interceptions. However, the Packers exited the playoffs with a divisional-round loss to the 49ers, coming up short of a championship yet again.
