The Aaron Rodgers – Green Bay Packers saga seems to take a new turn each day. And now multiple former NFL players have jumped in, giving their opinions regarding the matter.

One former player believes he knows Aaron Rodgers better than most others. And that is legendary Packers QB, Brett Favre. Favre, a 2-time Super Bowl winner and NFL Hall of Famer spent 16 seasons with the Green Bay Packers. 

The franchise eventually moved on from Favre by giving Aaron Rodgers his first start, three seasons after drafting him in 2005. The two shared a strained relationship at first but have reportedly become close friends since then.

Aaron Rodgers is a stubborn one

During the “Bolling with Favre” podcast, the former Packers QB said that by going by how he knows Aaron Rodgers, it’s unlikely the QB is going to budge from his stance.

“Knowing Aaron, and I think I know him fairly well. If he has a grudge, whether it be against the organization or a player, arch-rival, family, or friends, he ain’t budging,” said Favre.

“I don’t see him coming back and saying — if this is not resolved, however, whatever the issue is — if it’s not resolved, or even if it’s resolved but he feels like they have one up on him, he ain’t gonna play.”

Favre said that he expects Aaron Rodgers to sit out and not worry about losing out on his contract money.  

“Knowing Aaron, he would sit. Now, he would forego a lot of money, but he’s also got a lot of money.”

Favre said that given their relationship, the two have indeed talked about the situation. “Aaron and I have a great relationship, and we talked about it,” Favre said. “Obviously, he’s a little disappointed.”

The former quarterback also referenced a conversation he had with Rodgers recently where he asked weird it has been for him. 

“Aaron, do you ever look around and say, ‘I feel like the odd man out? And he said, ‘Yeah.”

With Aaron Rodgers yet to make a public statement regarding the scenario, do you think the quarterback will ever play a snap as a Packer again?
