Tom Brady rocked the sports world for a second year in a row when he announced his retirement—again.
This time, it appears to be more permanent after he reportedly submitted the paperwork to the league and NFLPA, and the move left some wondering whether Aaron Rodgers will follow suit. The Packers quarterback has yet to publicly announce his plans, but Brady explained on his podcast, Let’s Go! with Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray, why he hopes Rodgers won’t follow his footsteps into retirement.
“You know what, I hope he doesn’t retire,” Brady said. “… I think the league needs good quarterbacks, and he’s one of the greats. So if he retires, it’ll be a sad day for the league.”
