Some New Orleans Saints fans can cut out a worry they've considered during this offseason. Their favorite team won't be adding one of the most polarizing veteran players in the entire NFL during free agency.
Aaron Rodgers rules out playing for Saints
During a recent concert appearance, Rodgers revealed his opinion on playing for the Saints. He doesn't want to live in Louisiana at his age, so he has ruled out joining New Orleans' offense this offseason.

For New Orleans, they've hit a small reset with their roster and coaching staff. Moore is a young coach getting his first opportunity as an NFL HC. It's hard to see him marrying himself to an aging QB with a strong personality.
Not to mention, the Saints just drafted rookie QB Tyler Shough early in round two of the 2025 NFL Draft. Spencer Rattler also remains a potential option to start this season for them as well.
No matter what – the Saints may or may not have had some interest in adding Rodgers to the fold at some point since Derek Carr retired. It won't be a reality, though.
