Aaron Rodgers shared a lengthy cryptic post on his verified Instagram account late Monday amid his uncertain future with the Green Bay Packers, as well as recent reports of he and ex-fiancée Shailene Woodley calling off their engagement.

The reigning NFL Most Valuable Player shared several photos, including one with the quote "Gratitude is the wine for the soul. Go on. Get drunk," as part of a #MondayNightGraditude post "for some of the incredibly special people in my life, with some pictures from the last beautiful year," beginning with Woodley.

"Thanks for letting me chase after you the first couple months after we met, and finally letting me catch up to you and be a part of your life," Rodgers wrote of his ex-fiancée. "Thanks for always having my back, for the incredible kindness you show me and everyone you meet, and for showing me what unconditional love looks like, I love you and am grateful for you."

Rodgers then addressed several Packers teammates, which led to speculation regarding his future with the team amid what's expected to be yet another busy offseason for the four-time MVP.

"To the men I got to share the QB room with everyday, Matt, Nathaniel, Luke, @jordan3love and @kurtbenkert , you guys made every day so much fun and I’m so thankful for the daily laughs and stress relief you brought me every week of the year. I love you guys. 
"To the Friday Crew, @aiydacobb , @rcobb18 , @frankieshebby , and @davidbakhtiari , I loved every moment we got to spend together this year. Your love and support was overwhelming, and I cherish the friendships I have with each of you.
"To my teammates, past and current, you are the icing on the beautiful cake we call our job; football. the friendships that we have will transcend our collective time in this game and I am so thankful for the role that each of you have played in making my life that much better. I love you guys, and cherish the memories we’ve made.

Rodgers concluded the post by urging his followers to "spread love and gratitude you beautiful people, and read a book once in a while too while you're at it," before adding "Love and peace."

Rodgers is just days removed from winning his second consecutive NFL MVP award, which is the fourth of his 17-year career.

The former Super Bowl champion is once again facing an offseason in which his future with the Packers -- the only NFL franchise he's ever played for -- is in question after reportedly being "disgruntled" with the organization prior to returning last offseason.

"Everything is definitely on the table," Rodgers said during a recent appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, addressing whether he was considering retirement while weighing whether or not to return to the Packers or seek a trade out of Green Bay. "There are things that seem more plausible or more likely, which I won't necessarily get into but the most important thing is first the commitment to playing and to go into the offseason and training and all that stuff is the first and then after that it's just conversations with my agent and Brian and looking at the desires of the team and the mindset moving forward and then making a decision from there."

Rodgers and Green Bay agreed to a reworked deal this past offseason after the reigning NFL Most Valuable Player arrived late to training camp amid reports of being "disgruntled" with the organization.

Last week, TMZ reported the reigning NFL MVP and Big Little Lies star hAD "ended things for good" months after initially being "rumored to have split."

Rodgers, 38, and Woodley, 30, began dating in July 2020, following the quarterback's previous relationship with former racing driver Danica Patrick.

Rodgers initially referred to Woodley publicly as "my fiancée" during his virtual acceptance speech for his first of two consecutive NFL MVP awards in February 2021.

Woodley also publicly supported Rodgers amid backlash for his initial COVID-19 vaccine comments in November on the Pat McAfee Show after testing positive for the coronavirus days prior.
