The landmark Green Bay Packers-Aaron Rodgers deal has set Twitter ablaze, with reactions on how much heās getting paid and how he was never ācancelled.ā
On Tuesday, The Pat McAfee Show revealed that Aaron Rodgers decided to stay with the Green Bay Packers, and it seemed to break the Internet.
Ian Rapoport noted that retirement and the Broncos were real considerations, but in the end, Rodgers was able to get his desire deal in Green Bay.

Now, Aaron Rodgers seems to have the perfect answer to the Packers even drafting Jordan Love to replace him: his massive four-year, $200 million commitment.
The record-breaking contract has Rodgers making more after age 38 than all but 8 NFL players in their entire career.
Rodgers may have gotten his bag, but now thereās the question of where Davante Adams will end up. Itās assumed that Green Bay somehow found a way to keep Adams with Rodgers, which begs the question as to why the Dallas Cowboys canāt do the same with Amari Cooper.
Itās worth noting that Aaron Rodgers made sure to steal attention away, but it wasnāt from the Super Bowl or NFL Combine or NFL Draft. Instead, Rodgers took attention away from International Womenās Day, which is celebrated annually on March 8 during Womenās History Month.
Since Rodgers is now the highest-paid player in NFL history, heāll have nothing to complain about in Green Bayāor will he?
Green Bay fans will have reason to complain if Rodgers continues to choke in the playoffs.
With the news that Rodgers considered the Broncos, Chiefs fans have something to be thankful for: that Rodgers is staying out of their conference and division.
And through it all, itās entirely possible that Rodgers could have scored more had it not been for cancel culture.
While others can laugh and criticize Rodgers for taking so much money away from his teammates, it seems that Rodgers won his years-long war against the Packers for wealth and respect.
