With Aaron Rodgers announcing Tuesday on The Pat McAfee Show that he is likely to retire after the 2025 season, the sports world finds itself debating Rodgers’ legacy, as well as what a successful season with the Pittsburgh Steelers will look like.

That includes ESPN’s “Get Up,” specifically former NFL linebacker Bart Scott.

“I think he deserves an opportunity to be celebrated, to tell everybody, ‘Hey, this is my last year.’ What happened in New York, that narrative, he can’t go out that way. He just wants to come out and be who he is and representative of who he is and an organization that he’s always admired,” Scott said of Rodgers, according to video via ESPN’s YouTube page.
