"Aaron Rodgers is done as a quarterback of the Green Bay Packers" - Former NFL Pro Bowler believes reigning MVP's career is finished in Green Bay

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst has said he has received no trade offers for Aaron Rodgers. But that hasn't stopped some from saying the quarterback is finished with the team that served his career up to this point.

Speaking on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, former Pro Bowler TJ Houshmandzadeh was clear in stating how he thinks the quarterback is feeling right now, saying:

"I enjoyed our professional relationship. I enjoyed our friendship. All good things must come to an end. And I want to put this out there to show you guys how much I appreciated that brotherhood that we had. I believe he's played his last snap with the Green Bay Packers."

Those saying the quarterback is done often point to his high demands leading into 2021, including the holdout. That offseason, however, was intense for the quarterback. While he had a lot of fun and enjoyed the moment, the prospect of spending roughly another six months in a constant state of conflict is a tough one.

That's why the quarterback initially said he would make a decision quickly. That said, he's slipping into "slow" territory as the weeks continue. The longer he waits to announce his decision, the more entrenched people's opinions will become one way or the other. On top of speculating that the quarterback is done, the Pro Bowler also put forward where he thinks Rodgers will land, saying:

"Where does he go? I truly truly think Denver. I just don't see them hiring Hacky [Nathaniel Hackett] without it being a great chance of Aaron Rodgers being a Denver Bronco. But Aaron Rodgers, I believe, is done as a quarterback of the Green Bay Packers."

Last offseason, a trade that would have seen Rodgers join the Denver Broncos was reportedly close to completion. The trade seemingly fell apart at the last second. This year, with the quarterback once again uncertain about his future, the Broncos have a chance to make a move they failed to make last season.

Last season, veteran quarterback Teddy Bridgewater had the best statistical campaign of his career despite missing an entire month. It showcases just how good the Broncos' offense is. The team also hired Nathaniel Hackett as their new head coach. He was Rodgers' lauded offensive coordinator from 2019 to 2021.

The Broncos have a good roster and a coach who is familiar with Rodgers. Of course, they reside in a tough-as-nails division with Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert, and Derek Carr for what it's worth. Will the quarterback make the move to Denver, or will the Broncos find another solution to their quarterback conundrum? The clock is ticking as free agency approaches later this month.
