After three weeks to ponder his public response to the Green Bay Packers drafting his successor, Aaron Rodgers has spoken about the addition of Jordan Love.
He’s not thrilled. He is pragmatic. And he sounds like he’s resigned to finishing his career somewhere that’s not Green Bay.
Speaking on a conference call with reporters on Friday, the veteran Packers quarterback addressed the Packers’ selection of Love with a first-round pick in April’s draft. It was the first time he spoke about the decision in public.
‘Surprise, like many people’
“The general reaction at first was surprise, like many people,” Rodgers told reporters.
