USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin-USA

On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers made Aaron Rodgers an offer he couldn’t refuse, signing him to a record-setting contract extension.

It’s a huge deal that not only keeps him in Green Bay for the foreseeable future, but which also will pay him a staggering amount of money in the next calendar year.

After the news settled and Rodgers had time to reflect a bit, he took to his Instagram account to express his thoughts, thanking his fans and the Packers organization for what’s already happened while looking ahead to the future.

Since taking over as the full-time starter in Green Bay, Rodgers has been simply spectacular. He’s been the deadliest passer in the league and rarely makes mistakes, and to this point in his career he’s already racked up 38,502 yards and 313 touchdowns at the age of 34.

By the time Rodgers is finished — he hopes to play into his mid-40s — he could potentially break many league records.
