The cute dovetail for Minnesota Vikings fans pertaining to the Aaron Rodgers drama is to speculate that he will play in Minneapolis sometime after 2021. That’s mostly a goofy talking point designed for fodder, to irritate Packers fans, or for a kickstart of some Brett Favre nostalgia. In all likelihood, Aaron Rodgers will not play for the Vikings.
However, his decision-making skills directly affect the future of the franchise. Since the end of April, Rodgers’ stiff-arm of Green Bay Packers management eclipsed anything to do with Deshaun Watson – or really anything else NFL-related. Rodgers did not show up at Packers mandatory minicamp in June, signaling a silent-but-loud confirmation of the reporting on his discontent.
