What a way to kick off the 2021 NFL Draft
Patrick Mahomes had a reaction similar to the rest of the NFL world’s upon hearing the draft-day rumors that Aaron Rodgers does not want to return to the Green Bay Packers.
Rodgers wanting out of Green Bay was first reported Thursday by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, approximately five hours before the start of the 2021 NFL Draft.
Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs superstar quarterback, offered a very relatable reaction via Twitter depicting the day’s craziness.
“Well I see draft weekend is going to be pretty interesting… ,” Mahomes tweeted.
We’ve since heard reports noting how Rodgers’ displeasure with the Packers franchise is not just contract related, and it seems there is a real chance he has played his last game with Green Bay. The 2020 NFL MVP reportedly prefers to land on the West Coast, with the San Francisco 49ers, Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders reportedly on his wish list.
The 49ers reportedly offered the Packers a package for Rodgers including the No. 3 overall pick and veteran Jimmy Garoppolo. Rodgers reportedly even expected to be traded to the 49ers ahead of Thursday.
…And to think the draft hasn’t even kicked off yet.
