Former NFL star advises Aaron Rodgers to ‘walk away’ in goodbye ‘wave’

Aaron Rodgers has yet to commit to playing football for the 2023 NFL season, with the Green Bay Packers or elsewhere.

Rodgers recently emerged from a four-day “retirement in the dark” as the Packers appear poised to move past the four-time NFL MVP and put Jordan Love as the starting quarterback. But if he’s going to retire he’s still up in the air and one former NFL star is already anticipating the quarterback leaving into the sunset.

Brandon Marshall posted a clip of his “greeting” to Rodgers on his Instagram account and the “Paper Route” podcast account.

“I want to be the first to salute Aaron Rodgers for a phenomenal career,” the former Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears wide receiver who retired after the 2018 season said in his farewell message to Rodgers. “You’re one of the best. Personally, you’re my favorite quarterback. Favorite. Congratulations on a phenomenal career.”

“You won a Super Bowl. Hell, I didn’t even make (sic) the playoffs. You should be proud, brother. Your name and your team, that team, will forever be etched in NFL history. Your children The children of the kids will be able to see that.

“You’ve won back-to-back MVPs. I think you’ve won three MVPs. You’re phenomenal. It’s okay to walk away, bro. There’s nothing more left to prove. Go travel the world. Go explore. Go build your family.”

Marshall came to the NFL a year after Rodgers was selected in the first round of the 2005 NFL Draft. Marshall was a six-time Pro Bowler and one All-Pro selection. He also played for the Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, New York Giants, and Seattle Seahawks.
