Aaron Rodgers has made his weekly Tuesday appearance on Pat McAfee’s podcast a must-watch source for all of the biggest storylines surrounding the Green Bay Packers.

This week’s conversation covered plenty of topics as Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers come off their bye week, but the status of All-Pro left tackle David Bakhtiari has been a focal point for months.

Like so many Packers’ fans and NFL followers, McAfee asked about Bakhtiari during Tuesday’s chat with Aaron Rodgers and the Packers’ star quarterback deflected, spending nearly two minutes with movie references and jokes about a bet between himself and his left tackle.

Finally, McAfee pushed it again by repeating, “Well is he coming back or no?”

Aaron Rodgers then gave the news many expect at this point, but like the entire Packers’ brass, kept his answer vague and unclear.

“I don’t think he’s coming back this week,” Rodgers said with a grin. “But you never know.”
