In a recent sit down with Shannon Sharpe, former NFL player Marshawn Lynch discussed his college teammate Aaron Rodgers and his impressive career as a quarterback. Lynch referred to Rodgers as a top-five quarterback of all time and expressed his belief that Rodgers should have won more Super Bowls by now.

Lynch reflected on his time playing with Rodgers in college and shared his initial thoughts about the quarterback, stating that he always knew Rodgers had the potential to become the incredible player he is today. Lynch even credited Rodgers with giving him the opportunity to play as a freshman in college.

Lynch explained that he vividly remembered a spring game where he was given the chance to play with the first team. He recalled how nervous and excited he was, but he was shocked when Rodgers, who was leading the offense, handed him the ball backward after Lynch initially went the wrong way on a play. He described this move by Rodgers as the smoothest he had ever seen and exclaimed that it showcased the special talent and intelligence of Rodgers.

Lynch went on to explain how this incident and the accountability shown by Rodgers solidified their bond and trust on the field. He praised Rodgers for always looking out for his teammates, even to the point of taking blame for Lynch's mistake during a play. This level of trust and camaraderie between them allowed them to excel as a duo on the football field.

Lynch concluded by reiterating that Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks he has ever played with and expressed his surprise that Rodgers has not won more Super Bowls. Despite this, Lynch emphasized the impact and influence that Rodgers had on his own career and credited him for helping him build a level of trust and success on the field.
