In a world where athletes are often treated like demigods, one might wonder: what does it take for a four-time MVP to get a little respect? Aaron Rodgers, the celebrated Super Bowl-winning quarterback, raised eyebrows and perhaps a few heartfelt chuckles this week when he expressed his displeasure over being unsigned—so displeased, in fact, that he’s calling for the NFL to conjure up a brand-new expansion team just to accommodate him! I mean, who wouldn’t want to play in a shiny new stadium, right? With the NFL commissioner seemingly able to wave a magic wand and make a franchise sprout overnight, Rodgers is clearly feeling the heat from the sidelines. And don’t get him started about commentating—he’s just itching for that gig! If there’s one player who knows how to make headlines, it’s this guy. So, grab your popcorn, folks—this one’s bound to be a wild ride. <a href="https://theonion.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/AaronRodgersFumingNIBG_PH.jpg”>LEARN MORE.

MONTCLAIR, NJ—Declaring that this was no way to treat a Super Bowl winner and four-time league MVP, quarterback Aaron Rodgers told reporters Friday that he was furious the NFL hadn’t added an expansion team to sign him. “After everything I’ve done for this sport, the least they could do is create an entirely new franchise so I can play quarterback next season,” said the 41-year-old, adding that it was completely unacceptable for him to still be unsigned when NFL commissioner Roger Goodell could simply snap his fingers and create a team in San Antonio; Honolulu; Columbus, OH; or Portland, OR for Rodgers to lead in 2025. “I’ve played 20 seasons in the NFL, so I think it’s pretty messed up that no one’s even offered to pump hundreds of millions into a new stadium, coaching staff, and roster just so I can get on the field. Seriously, I’m not picky. If I had to, I’d even go to Canada!” Rodgers added that he was also furious that NFL Network hadn’t created a new streaming service to hire him as a commentator.
