A season to forget!
NFL superstar Aaron Rodgers is playing far below the team’s expectations with his New York Jets this season – the blockbuster change from receiver buddy Davante Adams also went wrong. The NFL world is speculating that the 40-year-old’s career will soon end. Now the Jets quarterback has big plans!
Legendary quarterback wants to go into politics
Despite the decline in performance, Rodgers wants to play in the NFL at the highest level for one to two more years. Nevertheless, the footballer has already started thinking about a career after football. Unlike his predecessors, Rodgers does not want to become a TV pundit at ESPN. His goal: the white house!

A source told the Daily Mail: “After his career, Rodgers will be asked if he wants to be a TV pundit – that’s definitely not something he aspires to. Rodgers wants to stay in the NFL for a few more years, initially with the Jets. BUT if that doesn’t bear fruit, he definitely wants to change teams to have another chance at the Super Bowl.”
The source continued: “His goal is politics! If it makes sense in the future, Rodgers wants to be president, or at least deputy president. One possible target is the 2028 election – by then Rodgers definitely won’t be playing football anymore. Rodgers takes his political career very, very seriously.”

A possible partner in Rodger’s political ventures is US politician Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the NFL star and he have developed a relationship over the years. Both men are united by their hatred of vaccinations. Kennedy Jr. was recently appointed by Donald Trump as Secretary of Health & Human Services and has reportedly already identified Rodgers as his running mate for his possible presidency.
So what’s next for Rodgers in the NFL? Some NFL insiders believe that a Jets departure after the season is inevitable, and the source doesn’t stop there either: “So far, no team has knocked on Rodgers’ door, but the season is still very long. The chances of Rodgers getting nudged by another team after the season are very high!”
