Aaron Rodgers has $200m reason to stay in NFL despite retirement admission

After the Green Bay Packers were eliminated from the playoffs on Sunday night, a dejected Aaron Rodgers left the field with long-term teammate Randall Cobb, with the two sharing a moment together knowing that it could be the last time they play together.

Not only that though, Rodgers gave a slight indication that he may never be seen in a Packers jersey ever again, nor even in on the NFL gridiron. After the season-ending loss to the Detroit Lions, knocking them out of the playoffs, Rodgers would also politely refuse to swap jerseys with opposition players, stating that he'd 'want to keep hold of this one'.

It's been a disappointing year for Rodgers, failing to make the playoffs whilst also not individually playing close to the level that fans had seen from him the previous two years, when he won back-to-back MVP awards.
