Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay on the Outs?



Quote:
Aaron Rodgers doesn't want to return to Green Bay Packers, sources say
Reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers is so disgruntled with the Green Bay Packers that he has told some within the organization that he does not want to return to the team, league and team sources told ESPN on Thursday.

The Packers are aware of his feelings, concerned about them and have had team president Mark Murphy, general manager Brian Gutekunst and head coach Matt LaFleur each fly out on separate trips to meet with Rodgers at various points this offseason, sources told ESPN.

"As we've stated since the season ended, we are committed to Aaron in 2021 and beyond," Gutekunst told ESPN. "Aaron has been a vital part of our success and we look forward to competing for another championship with him leading our team."

Rodgers has not budged this offseason, but neither have the Packers, who have made it known they are not interested in trading Rodgers anywhere.

The San Francisco 49ers called the Packers on Wednesday night, a source told ESPN, and the Los Angeles Rams inquired about Rodgers in January before they traded for Matthew Stafford.

The Packers quickly dismissed the Rams' overtures, the source said.

The Packers have offered to extend Rodgers' contract, sources told ESPN.

Rodgers is unhappy for a variety of reasons, with some of it dating back to last year's draft when the Packers didn't inform him before trading up to draft a quarterback with their first-round pick. Some took this as a sign that his days in Green Bay could he numbered.

He also is at a different point in his personal life, having recently gotten engaged to actress Shailene Woodley. Rodgers also has hosted "Jeopardy!" and said it would be a dream to become the full-time host. He could play football and host Jeopardy! together.

Rodgers has made cryptic comments about his future in Green Bay, but he has told others that he does not want to return.

On draft night, the Packers' biggest issue isn't who they land, but whether they can keep the former NFL MVP.

Rodgers' contract contained a $6.8 million roster bonus due in March. It could have been converted into a signing bonus that would have freed up more than $4.5 million in salary-cap space for this season but instead it "vested as scheduled," a source told ESPN at the time. It's listed as an automatic conversion in Rodgers' contract but even that has to be signed off on by both parties. It's not known if the Packers tried to convert and Rodgers refused to sign off on it, or if they did not attempt a conversion.

He could barely beat us when we had a highschool football coach starting, LOL! No disrespect meant towards Midnight Hour, dude balled. I wish he was still our backup.

I'll add a few more details that led me not caring anymore...you can decide for yourself...these are just my observations.

The NFL repeatedly rejects technical advancements in officiating. They did it again this year...there really inst a rational excuse to not update the accuracy. Other sports have implemented it..

Goodell is on record saying "officiating error is woven into the fabric of the sport"...this is when he was questioned about why the NFL hasnt changed its system. He literally (inadvertently) said.."****ing up a call is an important component of the game"

They pretended to make PI reviewable...and it ended up being a detriment to the team throwing the red flag. It was obvious they had no intent of actually enforcing it. It lasted one season...as a token appeasement for the Saints being screwed out of a SB..and their fans boycotting.

Judgement calls are how they swing point spreads...and they always have an out. Human error...they will NEVER remove this aspect.

Games are absolutely steered to go a certain way. Look at the way the Bilks game was called and the Bucs game and tell me officials don't make a difference in the outcome

To clarify, you're saying the league steered the Bills game in our favor?

It actually amazes me that there are full grown, successful adults who have been watching this sport for 30+ years and haven't figured this out yet.

Wonder why the league decided to rig superbowl 54 for us instead of superbowl 55. Why didn't they want one of the biggest markets and historic teams to win superbowl 54? Why didn't they choose the bigger market and most marketable young superstar in superbowl 55?

Oh well, hope they rig 56 for us. You guys think they will? How many Superbowls do you guys think they'll have Mahomes win in his career?

I think it's clear that certain games are manipulated to give certain players/markets a boost, but I think people go way too far with this. I don't see every game being scripted and predetermined. The WWE comparisons are ridiculous.

In a lot of cases, I think it's the Jordan treatment. They've turned Brady into a much bigger star than he ever had a right to be. When comparing his big game penalty totals to those of other QBs, it's undeniable.

In other cases, I think it's typically about maintaining a TV audience, with no real preference for a winner. We've seen it plenty of times in recent years. Flurry of penalties after KC takes a 21-0 lead on Pitt until suddenly the game's tied. Then officiating evens out. The Houston game a few years back, etc etc.

Not only watching...but discussing strategies and discussing player moves and player legacies based on game results.
