Aaron Rodgers makes major NFL retirement decision with New York Jets in chaos

AARON Rodgers has made a major decision on his retirement from the National Football League.

The team fell to 3-8 this season and Rodgers turns 41 in a matter of weeks.

But a source told the Daily Mail that television is not in his plans.

Rodgers is a regular on the Pat McAfee Show, where he has been interview every Tuesday for the last four years.

His regular appearances have helped the show's rise to popularity and also seen other players go into media.

But Rodgers has his eyes on politics and not sports media, the Daily Mail claim.

"After his playing career ends, he will be asked to be a TV analyst and commentator but that isn't something Aaron is very interested in doing," a source was quoted as saying.

"His post-playing days intentions are political.

"If it made sense, he would run for President or at least consider being a running mate in the way that RFK Jr. wanted him to be this year.

"Once he is retired, he would have no problem attempting to try his hand for political office."

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been named President-elect Donald Trump's nomination for Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Kennedy Jr. suggested the idea of Rodgers being his running mate if he went for President.

But the politician instead went for Nicole Shanahan in his bid over Rodgers.

The next US Presidential Election will take place in 2028.

Rodgers is likely to be retired from playing by then and would be free for a new career move.

But that will apparently not involve more sports media appearances like the Pat McAfee Show.

Seven-time Super Bowl champion Brady signed a 10-year, $375 million to be Fox's leading analyst.

Five-time MVP Manning, meanwhile has his own production company and shows on ESPN.

He appears alongside his quarterback brother Eli Manning as well as ex-Eagles star Jason Kelce on Monday Night Football coverage.

Rodgers is in the second year of a three-year, $112.5 million deal with the New York Jets.
