FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who said he was "90% retired" before entering his celebrated darkness retreat in February, now is talking like he wants to play not one ... not two ... but at least three more years.
"This is going to be a few-year partnership," Rodgers said Tuesday, explaining his rationale for taking a historic $35 million pay cut in a newly restructured contract.
In a long-anticipated move, Rodgers reworked his contract last week. Basically, it's a three-year, $112.5 million deal that includes $75 million in fully guaranteed money for 2023 and 2024.
