Brett Favre shares honest advice for Aaron Rodgers

If there’s anyone who knows what it’s like to be in Aaron Rodgers’ shoes, it’s Brett Favre.

Before Rogers was the longtime Green Bay Packers quarterback deciding whether or not to stay with the franchise where he made his mark or move on to another team, that was Favre’s decision towards the end of his career. Favre ended up leaving Green Bay and eventually playing for their hated rival, the Minnesota Vikings. Meanwhile, there are rumors abound that Rodgers could decide he wants a fresh start with a team like the Denver Broncos.

Favre, who once had an adversarial relationship with Rodgers but now considers him a friend, has commented in the past about the relationship between the franchise and its star. Tuesday, amidst reports that Rodgers is mulling his decision about what to do, Favre offered his own opinion about what might happen.

“I think we may have seen the last of Aaron in Green Bay,” Favre said on “The Opening Kickoff” on WNSP-FM 105.5 on Tuesday. “I don’t know that for certain. It’s just a gut (feeling). He may try his hand somewhere else now.”

As far as any advice he’d give to Rodgers when it comes to making this decision, Favre said that the QB should trust his gut.

“If your gut’s telling you that you want to try your hand somewhere else, whether it’s gotten stale here or stagnant or numb, then go give it a try,” said Favre.

“Act on it. If you don’t, you’ll always regret not acting on that impulse.”

Rodgers hasn’t been shy about sharing his opinion on things this season, so we’ll probably know sooner than later what he plans to do and where he plans to play next season.
