The Pro Bowl is a great opportunity for these…

The last time Ask Vic was very late, Vic was recovering from a heart attack and Packer fans were worried. Mike, are you okay?

We experienced some technical issues with the website Friday morning. Our apologies for the delay in posting Mike’s Inbox.

What are your thoughts regarding Aaron Rodgers playing the 2022 season in Green Bay?

Jordan from Virginia Beach, VA

Rodgers has said he will make a decision “sooner rather than later” because he understands his decision will affect others (players and our organization). My thought is this is a way better spot than we ended up in last year. When 12 makes his decision, it will help the pieces fall in place and Gutey and Russ Ball will do what is best for the team this coming season and five years from now. It’s wait-and-see season; not clickbait season.

Rodgers’ decision likely will be the first domino to fall this offseason, not the last. That’s crucial for the Packers.

Packers get beat by 49ers: Rodgers is going to retire, for sure

Rodgers says he’s on good terms with Packers: Rodgers stays with Packers, for sure

Broncos hire Hackett: Rodgers to Broncos, for sure

Brady Retires: Rodgers to Buccaneers, for sure

Rodgers owns property in Tennessee: Rodgers to Titans, for sure

Next week Rodgers has a layover between flights in Pittsburgh: Rodgers to Steelers, for sure

Listen, if you want to stay up to date on what’s going on with Rodgers, here’s an interesting idea – maybe wait, I don’t know, for what Rodgers has to say on the topic rather than subscribing to the Nashville Retailers newsletter? Rodgers discussed how his decision likely will come around the same time the Packers need to make a call on Davante Adams’ future. That’s probably later this month. So, I don’t really get why people are working themselves into a tizzy.

Kudos Mike for your story on Rashan Gary. I seem to remember in post-draft interviews he expressed interest in entrepreneurship or was already involved while at Michigan? If so, Gary’s growth as a leader had an established base which along with his physical gifts made for another quality individual in the Packer locker room.

I love Rashan Gary’s ambition and I think it’s a catalyst for his success as a player. Coming into the league, Gary wanted to start his own agency and put people in place to help make that happen. Like Spoff wrote, Gary still has his best years ahead of him. His drive is going to take him a long way.

With the Packers’ coaching staff at the Pro Bowl, is this a recruitment and networking opportunity? Or mostly just a fun trip for them?

It probably falls somewhere between fun and inconvenience (if that makes sense). The Pro Bowl is a great opportunity for these coaches, especially the younger ones, to gain some experience and exposure. It sounds like new offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich will be calling plays Sunday. Other than that, the event is more of a social outing than a football game. It’s not like Dan Campbell and Detroit’s staff coaching the Senior Bowl, where they get hands-on experience with hungry, draft-eligible prospects. Maybe Pro Bowl coaches get to know players a little more but football is a small world. Most of these guys already know each other.
