LeFleur said "hopefully we resolve this and he'll be back in a green bay Packers uniform" Why would he say that if Rodgers didn't want out? |

Since you obviously missed this: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Former <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Packers?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Packers</a> John Kuhn tells <a href="https://twitter.com/CBSSportsRadio?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CBSSportsRadio</a> he's spoken to <a href="https://twitter.com/AaronRodgers12?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@AaronRodgers12</a> this week. "At age 37 he's hoping to insure his career in GB DOES get to 40. He's seen what's happened to other QB's. It may take drastic measures to get there." Still a chance he stays? "Absolutely!"</p>— Mike Clemens (@MikeClemensNFL) <a href="https://twitter.com/MikeClemensNFL/status/1390120057288728576?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 6, 2021</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> I’m sure you won’t take the word of somebody who is close to Rodgers and has actually spoken to him directly about the situation either though... |
I think the most likely outcome here is he skips OTA’s, training camp and comes back the week of the first regular season and then they resume these talks with teams next Spring.
It’s too late to trade this guy now that the draft is done. I could definitely see him skipping some regular season games |

Even AJ said "never say never" when he was pressed about what he said. And Kuhn for all the optimism he had, only went up to 70-75% chance Rodgers would be a Packer next year. |

So no, I still don’t think this all necessarily means he 100% wants out. |

It may be a bit oversimplified to just say GB has all the leverage. But, this idea in the media that Rodgers has his list of teams he'll play for and GB is somehow obligated to cower down to that is ridiculous. If GB trades him, the most likely partners would be a team who can give a good QB back. If Watson isn't banned or permanently suspended by the league, I'd be looking there or even Seattle if I'm GB... But, I think the more likely scenario is the GB GM gets canned and Rodgers gets paid. |

So, I'm all for HOU working out a deal to send picks/players to GB and then in return, DEN can send players and picks to HOU for Watson. GB wins by getting whatever they think they want in return. HOU wins by removing a PR nightmare and getting Rodgers & then essentially replacing whatever they gave up for Rodgers with what they get in return by trading with DEN. DEN wins because now they have a QB for the next decade at a price similar to what it would take to get Rodgers. Rodgers wins because now he is out of GB and in a division that he could more easily win during the next 2-3 seasons compared to the AFCW. Problems solved. :LOL: |
Bob McGinn is the best sports journalist covering the Packers. He’s been doing it for like 4 decades.
Cowherd said that McGinn spoke to a longtime friend of Rodgers who said that once Rodgers has it in his head he’s not backing down. 2% chance he plays for the Packers again |
How big of a piece of shit is Schefter?
