Just like a year ago, this NFL offseason is expected to be full of drama and speculation when it comes to Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Will he retire? Will he play for the Packers? Or will be traded?

Those are really the only three options for Rodgers as the Packers would face a nearly $100 million dead cap hit if they released the future Hall of Famer.

On Tuesday, Rodgers appeared on "The Pat McAfee Show" for his weekly visit and he talked about his future plans.

Rodgers didn't make any major declarations about his plans, but he said enough that I feel like it's quite obvious what his situation will be in 2023.

Two things specifically stood out to me about Rodgers' comments on Tuesday.

The first thing, and perhaps the most important, is when Rodgers said he still feels like he can win an MVP award in the "right situation".

The second thing he said is that he doesn't want to be part of a rebuild. He only wants to play if he feels like the team is attempting to win it all.

Aaron Rodgers gives more explanation for what he means when he references #Packers needing to understand what situation they're in as a team: "If there's a rebuild going on, I won't be a part of that."

The fact that Rodgers feels like he can still win an MVP shows that he still has the competitive fire it takes to win in the NFL. "The right situation" comment was probably a subtle hint to the Green Bay front office that they need to give him some talent to work with (the team as a whole).

And then the fact that he's talking about still wanting to win it all instead of being part of a rebuild tells us that his focus isn't necessarily on retiring but instead on whether or not he'll be in a good situation in Green Bay in 2023.

I know this is being built up as a dramatic offseason story, but Rodgers playing in Green Bay is the only thing that makes sense. The only way Rodgers retires is if the Packers completely tear down the roster and can't find a trade partner willing to take on Rodgers' salary (Green Bay would also have to be ok with a $40 million dead cap hit if they trade ARod). And I still think it's incredibly unlikely that Rodgers walks away from $60 million for 10 months of work.

It's just hard to see a scenario other than Rodgers in a Packers uniform in 2023.

And his comments on Tuesday seemingly confirmed that, albeit in the most abstract Aaron Rodgers way possible.
