FEW MINUTES AGO: Aaron Rodgers finally announces decision to joins New York Giants on 3-year contract, choosing Giants over Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings.
In a move that has sent shockwaves through the NFL, veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers has officially announced that he will be joining the New York Giants on a groundbreaking three-year contract worth $215.6 million. This stunning decision marks the end of months of speculation about Rodgers’ future and puts to rest rumors surrounding potential moves to other teams, including the Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings.
Rodgers, a four-time NFL MVP and one of the greatest quarterbacks of his generation, made the announcement earlier today in a statement released through his agent. “After careful consideration, I have decided to take my talents to New York and become part of the Giants’ storied franchise. I am excited to join such a talented roster and contribute to the team’s pursuit of a Super Bowl,” Rodgers said.
The deal, which is one of the richest contracts in NFL history, comes after months of intense speculation and rumors. For weeks, the Steelers and Vikings were considered the front-runners, with many believing Rodgers would be the missing piece to push their respective teams into title contention. However, in the end, it was the Giants’ offer — both in terms of compensation and a strong team foundation — that won the day.
The Giants, who have been rebuilding and making strides in recent seasons, now have a quarterback who can take them to the next level. Rodgers’ arrival bolsters an already solid offense, providing young stars like Saquon Barkley and Darren Waller with a future Hall of Famer leading the charge
