Is Aaron Rodgers Over the Hill?

I'd be shocked if he doesn't play next year. We haven't seen the last of AR

Achilles injuries are so bizarre as they normally come out of nowhere and are non-contact. Rodgers had been dealing with a lingering calf issue during camp, which is often a precursor to a failing achilles (see Kevin Durant). It's the reason the Bengals have been conservative with Burrow.

I don't believe that is correct. If he just announced his retirement today, he most certainly would have to pay back some of his guaranteed dollars. Now maybe he never takes another snap in the NFL, but he will be rehabbing as a Jet and get his money for doing so... then officially retire with $75M. 

Absolutely, he doesn't retire today. But the first $75 is guaranteed and that's the risk the Jets were willing to take to sign him. He's getting that $75,000,000 even if he never walks in their facility again.
