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.

Drama Queen...
It does seem like Rodgers enjoys the drama, or is possibly trying to gain leverage for a new contract, but I'm actually cool with this type of post if it's sincere. Dude's should be able to show love to their bros without it being weird.

All the past tense stuff and him being just shy of 40 with no real playoff success in a decade... sure sounds like he's tipping the hat and about to hang up the cleats for good.

I tear up a little bit inside every time one of you a-holes says this... and it's partially because he should be cheaper to acquire. JG would easily be an upgrade - but it's a low bar right now.

JG is 4-2 in the playoffs since 2019.
Rogers is 5-5 in the playoffs since 2019.

Too bad that JG just sucks and is not a winner... since joining SF, he's played in 6 or fewer games in 3 of those 5 years. I'd rather see Denver go for Cousins. JG is terrible.

Oh don't get me wrong... I'm making that comment under the notion that 'something is going to be done via trade' and I know that DEN is friendly with both SF and MIN historically.

If given the choice - Cousins or JG, yes I'll take Cousins.

That's like choosing whether to treat a wound with salt or lemon juice.

And of course, the Rodgers option is rubbing alcohol. It will work better than lemon juice or salt but damn is it going to hurt.

Well, regardless of WHO you end up with (Cousins, JimmyG, etc.), it will likely be a better QB room than you've had since Peyton retired, so there's something I guess . . . . .

I think Denver should just tank for the next 15 or so seasons until mahomes and Herbert are gone. We'll extend our winstreak by 30 plus games and you can stock pile draft picks. Then just keep packaging those picks into number ones until you find your qb. 🙂
