Aaron Rodgers has always been relaxed — perhaps more relaxed than he should be. When staring down a 1-2 record in 2014, he looked at a room full of reporters and said: “R-E-L-A-X.” When fielding questions during The Match about his future with the Green Bay Packers — and, in turn, his career as a professional football player — he simply responded by saying, “I don’t know.”
He even smirked.
It feels like a game to him. It’s a game (media relations) within a game (football). The fact that he’s able to take such a low key approach is partially why I think he’s equipped to win his negotiations with the Packers.
