We're waiting for Aaron Rodgers, again.
The quarterback is deciding where he'll land next. It's not totally clear whether he has options beyond the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Giants. The Minnesota Vikings are unsure whether they want to enter the Rodgers sweepstakes, per multiple reports. It makes sense that Rodgers is prioritizing Minnesota to see. It's just a question of whether the Vikings want Rodgers.
That makes sense, given Rodgers' history in New York and Green Bay, where he created issues. It's clear he's in decline, even if it's unclear how far he's fallen.

McCarthy) when you've got a shot at a future Hall of Famer. You take your shot at a championship when it's there.
Henry McKenna: That makes so much sense on paper. Rodgers always does. But
