Aaron Rodgers smashed the Saints badly.
The New Orleans Saints could use an experienced quarterback, but Aaron Rodgers, who will likely be in the Hall of Fame, doesn’t sound like a good choice.
It looked like that was always the case, but Rodgers made it clear on Friday. During the question-and-answer session, a fan asked him if he would ever think about playing for the Saints. He quickly replied, “No.”
“No,” Rodgers answered straight out. “That’s the reply. Not at all. I’ve played there a few times, but no. It’s not true. I don’t want to live in Louisiana anymore because I’m too old. I’m sorry.”
Rodgers is going to be in the Hall of Fame one day. He just spent two years with the New York Jets after playing for the Green Bay Packers for most of his career. After the Jets said they were moving on around the Super Bowl, he became the most sought-after player in free agency.
He’s been heavily tied to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Although he hasn’t said for a fact that he will be playing in Pittsburgh in 2025, he has done just one free agent visit this offseason and it was to Pittsburgh. When Derek Carr retired, speculation immediately started about the possibility of New Orleans going after Rodgers.
It was pretty clear that even if the Saints wanted him, a deal wouldn’t happen. The Saints’ quarterback room is very young and features Tyler Shough, Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Hunter Dekkers. If the Saints are going to add a veteran, it won’t be Rodgers.
