Recently Aaron Rodgers tweeted something that totally confused his fans. It also drove the NFL world by storm. Besides the fans, it was also new information for bettors who wait for NFL picks to place their best bets! So, what was that tweet? And what exactly does it mean? With Aaron Rodgers’s NFL future being a mystery, there are a lot of questions. Here’s a brief on the incident
Twitter Post That Created Confusion
Besides Howley’s induction into the NFL hall of fame, football enthusiasts have other interesting news. And that’s where Rodgers’ tweet comes in. The 39-year-old NFL quarterback caused a stir on Twitter with a strange post of ‘SULLLLLL’ and two laughing emojis, sending his fans into a frenzy. This was fishy for fans, as everyone still waits for Rodgers’ decision on his next move. He’s yet to announce whether he will retire, move to new pastures, or stay with Green Bay Packers. His recent post has initiated a war of assumptions, as people thought he might transfer to the New York Jets. Fans were quite optimistic about his possible move.
Douglas Behind the Confusing Tweet?
While the tweet initiated a tsunami of emotions among fans and NFL watchers, the truth was finally revealed. It was not Rodgers but his Green Bay Packers teammate Rasul Douglas who made the SUL post on his Twitter account. Douglas clarified that he was the mastermind behind the tweet and had Rodgers’s phone with him. The comment could be related to Douglas’s first name.
Eventually, he quoted the tweet with, “I told y’all I have his phone.” His quote had fans questioning him. One of the users asked, “Wassup with you, bro [sic].” He replied to the fan, “I don’t even know, bro, honestly.”
Fans Ask for Proof
Despite the clarification, fans wanted more than the answers. That’s why many of them questioned whether his claims are, in fact, true or not. One of the Twitter users asked for proof from Douglas that he had Rodgers’ phone by posting something from his account. To this, he replied with, “What do you want me to Tweet on his account? I will, something that shows it’s me.”
Green Bay Packers and Rodgers Trading Incident
This Rodgers Twitter incident occurred when the Packers were recently questioned why they aren’t asking Rodger to stay in the team. The team’s ace replied, “Because we have his number. We can text him instead of writing it on social media. As our leader, he knows how everyone on the roster feels about him.”
Douglas has been quite vocal about the team and Rodgers’ trading incident. He told people their leaders know how the entire team feels about Rodger. When Douglas tweeted this, Rodger liked the tweet. However, he did not reply to it.
One of the Twitter users sent a picture of Rodgers’s Twitter account likes and asked Douglas whether it was him. He replied, “Hell yeah, I’m liking my own Tweets with his phone.” Amidst all the speculations, New York Jets player Garrett Wilson posted on Twitter, “Y’all shud see this smile on me rn [sic].” However, later he clarified that he was unaware of the trading incident. “I ain’t gon fake it, I thought “Dov” bro tweet was the news break I was waiting for… smh. Idk anything. Sorry ab that [sic].” he wrote.
Is Rodgers Being Traded to the Jets?
There’s a possibility! Rodgers may get traded to the Jets for wide receiver Allen Lazard. But, after all the clarification, it’s unlikely that the SUL tweet was his announcement. His decision is still awaited.
