When it was over Sunday night and the cameras turned to Aaron Rodgers walking off Lambeau Field in defeat against Detroit, it was difficult to keep from reading into his body language and where his eyes were traveling. It was easy to see that he seemed to walk a little slower, linger a little longer, stare a little deeper, like someone meticulously absorbing a moment that needed to last.<\/p>\n

Judging whether it’s the end for an elite player like Rodgers feels like football meteorology. You study the front office and coaching atmosphere around him. You take note of the emotional currents in the locker room. Then you forecast what it all means for the end of his career. In reality, only he knows where it’s all going. And sometimes, as we saw with Rodgers on Sunday night, even the player can’t fully grasp what lies ahead.<\/p>\n

That doesn’t mean Rodgers hasn’t given a preview to everyone looking in. Despite still feeling his way through the disappointing end of a frustrating 2022 season, the Packers quarterback provided enough information to boil this all down to three questions that will either layer on top of each other and culminate in another season, or collapse entirely and spell the end of his career in Green Bay.<\/p>\n

Starting with:<\/p>\n

1. Does Rodgers have enough desire to ramp up another season?<\/h2>\n

This is usually the first question that opens the door to the end for top echelon NFL players. Particularly those whose bodies are still healthy enough to continue.<\/p>\n

It stops being a question of whether they Bell<\/em> play and starts being a function of whether or not they want<\/em> to play. While the 2022 season was n’t his finest performance on record, Rodgers ‘arm talent is still near the top of the NFL. But he lost something dynamic with the departure of Davante Adams and the Packers were never able to consistently replicate it down the stretch, even with Christian Watson blossoming the second half of the season.<\/p>\n
