With Aaron Rodgers officially leaving the Packers to join the Jets, the superstar quarterback addressed his departure from Green Bay publicly for the first time since the trade.
Rodgers took to Instagram to say goodbye to the Packers organization, Green Bay fans and everyone whom he encountered during his 18 seasons with the team. The quarterback has only played for the Packers since they drafted him in the first round in 2005.
“I’m not sure it’s possible to fully express the gratitude that I have to the Packers, our incredible fans, the state of Wisconsin, the thousands of players that I crossed paths with, the incredible men and women who work for the organization, and the amazing people who I got to meet along the way, in one post with 10 pictures, but I hope you read this and feel my heart and soul, filled with love, joy, and peace about my time in green and gold,” he wrote in the post.
