When free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers recently said he could be joining a team that “[might play in Chicago this year](https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/aaron-rodgers-drops-a-hint-that-hell-be-heading-for-pittsburgh),” the obvious inference was that Rodgers was referring to the Steelers.
But another team to which Rodgers has been linked also has a 2025 regular-season game at Soldier Field. The Saints.
Via Tina Howell of CanalStreetChronicles.com, Rodgers separately said during that same Q&A session at a “Mike Stud” concert (yes, this is what my life has come to) that he’s [not interested in joining the Saints](https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/2025/5/24/24436454/aaron-rodgers-says-he-is-not-interested-in-playing-for-the-saints).
Asking if he’d ever consider playing for the Saints, Rodgers quickly said, “No.”
He then said, “That the answer. I’ve played there a couple times. But no, I’m too old. I don’t want to live in Louisiana. Sorry.”
That leaves the Saints with Tyler Shough, Spencer Rattler, and Jake Haener to do battle in camp for the starting job. Unless they add a current free agent (like Ryan Tannehill), trade for a veteran in a crowded house (Kenny Pickett, Joe Flacco, Jameis Winston, for instance), or pounce on someone who inevitably gets cut.
