Aaron Rodgers is hoping to add a gold medal to a career that will undoubtedly end with enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The New York Jets quarterback made the admission that he hopes to participate in the Olympics in 2028. The sport?
Rodgers talked with Kay Adams this week from Jets training camp. Invariably, the topic of All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams potentially reuniting with Rodgers came up…because, of course, it had to.
It was in this conversation talking about playing with Davante Adams again that that Rodgers wove in the idea of playing flag football in the Olympics.
“I’d love to play with Davante again, it might be in the, you know, 2028 Olympics if they let some of the old guys go out and play but we’ll see,” Rodgers told Kay Adams.
“I want him to have great success – I love him. We keep in contact – mostly about golf, because he’s a fanatic about golf.”
