Green Bay Packers star Aaron Rodgers acknowledged Wednesday he can see retirement in the distance as he talked about the team’s chance of getting to the playoffs and potentially winning the Super Bowl.
Rodgers, who recently turned 36, compared his career to a round of golf and lamented he can see the final hole coming up, according to WBAY-TV.
“[I'm] seeing the 18th hole coming up, realizing I can't play forever,” Rodgers said. “The opportunities don't come along all the time. I could feel the energy of this team early in April and May.

Rodgers has 3,065 passing yards and 22 touchdown passes this season.
