Report: Aaron Rodgers no longer on Vikings radar, turn down trade offer for J.J. McCarthy
Aaron Rodgers seemingly has one less potential home in 2025.
Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Vikings are going to be looking to add Rodgers to their roster. He adds that they have rejected multiple trade offers from teams for their 2024 first-round pick, J.J. McCarthy, and told those teams they are "moving forward" with McCarthy as their starting quarterback.
Over the last ten days, there have been rumors that Rodgers is in play for the Vikings. While this makes no sense to Vikings fans or most people in the media, the rumors never seemed to die down.
Now, with this new report, Vikings fans can start to plan to see the future of the franchise under center this offseason and into the season. As for Aaron Rodgers, he is seemingly down to just the Browns, Steelers, and Titans as teams with quarterback needs but have yet to sign any veterans for the upcoming season as they navigate their way to finding long-term answers at the position.
