Free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers has brutally shut down a request from a New Orleans Saints fan hoping he would make their team ‘great again’ by saying he will never play for them.
The 41-year-old attended a concert with rapper Mike Stud performing, with the duo taking audience questions.
A fan wearing red stepped up to the mic and asked her question to Rodgers about her beloved Saints.
‘Would you ever consider playing for the Saints and making us great again?’ she said.
“No! No, I’ve played there a couple times,’ Rodgers said. ‘But no, the answer is no. I’m too old. I don’t want to live in Louisiana.’
Incumbent Saints starter Derek Carr shockingly retired from football this month, citing a shoulder injury, leaving a vacancy for an experienced quarterback in New Orleans.

New Orleans now does not have a quarterback on its roster with an NFL victory. Rookie Tyler Shough was drafted by the team last month, while Jake Haener and Spencer Rattler are a combined 0-7 in the league.
Should the Saints go after the 41-year-old free agent, who is also a four-time NFL MVP, they would now have 156 NFL wins in their quarterback room.
Rodgers was not swept up in the free-agency frenzy that began in March, with the Pittsburgh Steelers looking to be his best option left, with the team yet to commit to him.
There will be talk of elevating Shough and giving him a chance from day one to be the starter.
Shough would be in a unique position, as New Orleans are thought to be good enough to win the NFC South, which is not typical for a rookie quarterback to be entering such a plum situation.
