Aaron Rodgers says he has focused on his mental health this offseason amid talk of a rift with the Green Bay Packers: ‘Sometimes there’s a lot of wisdom in silence’

GREEN BAY, WIS. — Reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers says he has spent this offseason focusing on improving himself in every respect, and that goes beyond making sure he’s in top physical shape.

Rodgers skipped the Green Bay Packers’ mandatory minicamp last month amid reports he doesn’t want to return to the team. At a Monday news conference to promote his participation in Tuesday’s televised golf event with Tom Brady, Bryson DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson, Rodgers was asked how the last few months have gone for him.

Aside from a brief ESPN interview in late May, Rodgers hasn’t commented much about his football future since ESPN reported in the hours before the draft that he doesn’t want to return to the Packers.
