Sitting out isn’t an empty threat though.. he could very well sit out this year, come back for his last year and then leave forcing Green Bay to have to play a year without him just to watch him come back for the 2023 season and then leave at age 40 like Brady.
Sitting out could very much disrupt Green Bay’s plans. He already has a ton of money, and Green Bay could move on from him after this next year and save 22 million.. so he does have leverage it’s really about if he’s serious about giving up a years salary.
It really comes down to whose more comfortable and I think Aaron Rodgers while it would be uncomfortable would be more comfortable sitting out a year and watching the flames burn down Green Bay, than the front office would like to admit.
