Aaron Rodgers said Thursday that personal commitments,关键字1 including a new serious relationship, are central to his decision on whether to return to the NFL, while refusing to rule out retirement. The four-time MVP is currently a free agent and has drawn interest from the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers, 41, said he has entered a different phase of life and is prioritising his personal well-being. "I'm in a serious relationship, I have personal commitments... and people in my inner circle battling difficult stuff," he said. "To make a commitment to a team is a big thing."

Aaron Rodgers shared news of his relationship with a woman named Brittani on The Pat McAfee Show. While discussing his shift from in-store to online Christmas shopping, the veteran quarterback casually mentioned her.

“There was one package left for my girlfriend Brittani that hadn’t showed up yet,” Rodgers said.

When McAfee joked that he might be dating pop star Britney Spears, Rodgers clarified with a laugh: “No, this is Brittani with an 'i'.” He added that she doesn't watch the show and isn’t on social media, offering a rare glimpse into his typically private personal life.

Rodgers, who visited the Steelers' facility in March, is not under contract following his release from the New York Jets. While he confirmed that joining Pittsburgh remains a possibility, he also stated he has told head coach Mike Tomlin that the team is free to move on if they choose not to wait.

"This entire time, I haven't felt like I owed anybody a decision," Rodgers said. "If you need to move on and do something, love and respect. But there's been no deadline. I've talked to Mike T many times."

Rodgers added that money would not play a role in his final decision. "I told every single one of the teams, it ain't about the money," he said. "I'll play for $10 million. Whatever. I'm open to anything and attached to nothing. Retirement could still be a possibility."

The veteran quarterback’s comments come as NFL teams look to finalise their rosters ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft, which begins on April 24. Rodgers’ timeline suggests he may not make a decision until after the draft.

The Steelers recently re-signed Mason Rudolph to a two-year, $8 million deal and currently have him listed as their starting quarterback. Last season, Pittsburgh parted ways with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, both of whom are now signed with New York teams. Wilson joined the Giants, while Fields signed with the Jets — replacing Rodgers.

Rodgers’ recent seasons have been marred by injury and underperformance. He missed the 2023 campaign due to injury and finished the 2024 season with a 5-12 record. His stint with the Jets, meant to end their 14-year playoff drought, ultimately failed.

Now, Rodgers is placing personal priorities above football. While he continues to draw interest, his future in the NFL remains uncertain as he contemplates his next move.
