Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers became the highest-paid player in NFL history when he signed a five-year contract extension in April that will pay him $110 million. Rodgers is hoping to play at least through the 2019 season, when his recently signed contract expires, Mike Vandermause of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports. "I said (in the past) eight more," Rogers said. "I played eight (seasons), I think I can get eight more. But this contract, the way it’s set up, it’s not comparable to some of the other similar contracts where the cap number becomes so large at the end of three and four and five (years) where they might have to re-do it. I think we can legitimately see this all the way through seven years. Now that would take very consistent play from me, for me to be worth those numbers for the next seven years. But I fully expect to play well and if I can play seven more good years and we can have some more success and win a couple more (titles), then it might be time to hang it up." Source: The Redzone
