GREEN BAY, Wis. – Having skipped the offseason program in his dispute with the team, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he spent the time away from game working on his mental health.
“I’m very thankful for the opportunity to work on my mental health,” Rodgers, via ESPN.com, said on Monday during a news conference to promote Tuesday’s “The Match,” a made-for-TV golf clash featuring Rodgers and Bryson DeChambeau battling Phil Mickelson and Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady. “I haven’t dealt with bouts of depression or anything that I think, for whatever reason, are OK to talk about if you’re talking about mental health. I’ve just really been trying to think about what puts me in the best frame of mind. What habits can I form that allow me to feel most in my body, most present, happiest? And that’s what I've been doing.”
