Ever since he suffered an Achilles tear, football enthusiasts have been wishing for his speedy recovery and a blockbuster return this season. During his recovery process, A-Rod has shown significant improvements in his health, the most recent being the “hell of a video” that impressed Pat McAfee and his team.

Besides this, an NFL reporter also revealed the potential date of his return, which blew away sports analysts and Rodgers’ fans. However, in the latest episode of The Pat McAfee Show, the four-time NFL MVP talked about this, revealing his plans and the actual return date scenario.

Pat McAfee got this opportunity to ask Rodgers about the reality behind the rumors.

He highlighted the video, energetically saying, “What you’re doing right now and you keep sandbagging too… saying no real developments in rehab no real this you know kind of a slow week and then all of a sudden just like… you’re crushing it, man.” However, Rodgers clarified that he didn’t reveal any specific date.
