Aaron Rodgers has football fans throughout the NFL freaking out today as yesterday, it was revealed that he wants out of Green Bay. Now, fans are hoping that their respective teams start throwing out trade offers as they know Rodgers can help them win a Super Bowl in year one.

“If I were Aaron Rodgers, I would have walked off the field at the NFC Championship game, walked into the locker room, I would have shook my teammates hands, and I would have said ‘goodbye.’ And I never would have spoken to the Green Bay Packers again,” Smith said.
For the most part, the media is on Rodgers’ side with this one as he has consistently been a top-five quarterback, all while his front office has failed him at every turn. While the Packers are set on not trading him, it’s looking like they might not have a choice.
