The Green Bay Packers starting quarterback made an appearance on the entertaining program ‘How Hungry Are You?’ The Milwaukee Bucks forward Serge Ibaka serves as the show’s host. He poses some challenging and perplexing questions. Because he enjoys chit-chatting, Aaron Rodgers responded to the question of the year.

On the show, the two played a spicy Q&A round. The person who did not answer a question had to drink cricket tea. Yummy!

When Ibaka asked Rodgers what team he would’ve wanted to play if he didn’t return to the Packers for this Sean, he said Toronto Argonauts of the CFL. But when the host pressed him to select a team from the NFL, A-Rod’s answer was the Oakland Raiders. Cunning of him, since he knows the team no longer resides in the Bay Area. 

The 39-year-old was having a great time with Ibaka. Throughout the game, the QB didn’t sip from the cup once. One would expect him to at least try the drink since he loves to experiment with weird teas.

Although it looked like Aaron Rodgers answered the question so that he could avoid not drinking the tea, the Raiders are a peculiar choice. His top receiver, Davante Adams, was traded to them in this off-season. The 5x All-Pro WR is having the best time of his career there.

What does Aaron Rodgers require that will extend his time with the Packers? 

The Green Bay Packers struggled throughout the season. Part of the reason was Davante Adams’ absence from the team. Green Bay shifted from him to the young receivers. Also, doubts surrounded the starting QB’s status with the team. However, they subsided when A-Rid signed an extension contract. Despite that, the former Super Bowl winner may bid the crew adieu if he fails to gel with the receivers.

Before their essential matchup with the Miami Dolphins, Rodgers spoke with reporters from his locker room. He talked about what his future may look like in the team and what exactly he expects from the Packers. 

The back-to-back MVP winner said that the crucial aspect that will keep him on the team will be his mental and physical health. Then he moved on to talk about “guys on offense who have kind of unsettled futures.” Keeping those “guys” on the team will help the QB to stay with the Indian Packers.

As always, the 10x Pro Bowler did not answer clearly. And the team will gain much relief from him speaking his mind although that surely happens in a more private space which fans cannot know.
