Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will turn 35 years of age in December, and the two-time MVP and Super Bowl 45 champion already has an idea on how much longer he wants to play.

In an interview with Peter King of NBC Sports, Rodgers revealed that he would like to play until he's 40 - which won't happen until Dec. 2, 2023.

"I'd love to play to 40. I just think that number means a lot," Rodgers said. "Obviously, Tom [Brady] is kind of rewriting the book. Brett [Favre] had a good season when he turned 40."

Prior to a broken collarbone injury sustained in Week 6, Rodgers was in the midst of yet another MVP-caliber season, and looked poised to take Green Bay to the playoffs for a ninth consecutive season. He only returned for one game, however, and was shut down for the season when the Packers were eliminated from postseason contention.

But even though he's now in his mid-30s, Rodgers has showed zero signs of slowing down. No quarterback in the NFL is as decorated or complete as Rodgers, who is a surefire Hall of Famer at this point.

"My goal is be able to move like I do or close to how I do and still be able to do that at 40 ... just because nobody's been able to do that and still move around the same," Rodgers said.

"Steve Young's career was cut short in his late thirties. John [Elway], the same-he didn't really move the same as when he was younger. So to be able to move the same way at 38, 39, 40 would be cool. That's my aim."

Only so many NFL quarterbacks have been able to play into their 40s. As Rodgers noted, Brady is coming off an excellent age-40 season, where he won his third MVP award and nearly led the New England Patriots to a sixth Super Bowl championship in the 21st century.

At age 40, Favre had an MVP-like year for the Minnesota Vikings in 2009 and led them to the NFC Championship game. But some legends like Elway, Young, Joe Montana and Peyton Manning just weren't able to go into their 40s.

The key for Rodgers is to stay healthy between now and his 40th birthday. As we've learned from the likes of Young and Manning, it just takes that one injury that can take you from MVP level to an easy retirement decision.
