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.

When will people learn not to trust these reports? This is yet another example of the media being completely full of shit with a Rodgers report.

I have no idea whether or not the reports are true. I'm just responding to the people that say the Packers can't afford it.

They can. As can any other team that really wants him.

Oh I wasn’t referring to you at all buddy!

But we now know this report is bullshit because Rodgers confirmed it’s bullshit.

Unless Rodgers is going to be a douche like LeBron was when he did that stupid ass announcement going to Miami, I don’t see him leaving.

The interesting thing is I could totally see Rodgers doing that.

The situations aren’t remotely comparable.

Lebron was a free agent.

Rodgers would be announcing that he’s demanding a trade, which takes it to another level entirely.

It’s not happening.

Rodgers has taken it much further.

LeBron had one night of drama. Which took place after he was a free agent.

Aaron Rodgers was under contract when he leaked, on draft night, that he wanted to be traded. He then skipped all of the offseason workouts until they lopped off the final year of his deal. Ever since he has been entirely non-commital when asked if he was going to come back. He's been doing this for nearly an entire year.

Rodgers may go back to Green Bay, but I don't think he went through all of this for nothing. There is a very good chance he doesn't come back.

Honestly, how in the world do you twist things so much,? You just don't get the obvious. "All THIS" was not for nothing. It's EXACTLY the thing a drama douche does. It IS the end game. He was NEVER going to leave Green Bay, but he always was going to stir shit up. And you were always going to fall for it, because you're so desperate.

It’s all coinciding with what Rodgers wants.

More moves to create space. Their cap problem will be fine before the deadline.



Rodgers new deal will likely take his $46 million 2022 cap hit down to like $25 million. They’ll save a shit Los of money doing that alone

You're going to end up paying out the ass for a meddling game manager QB like Jimmy G, or drafting more defense and sticking with your shitcrap at QB.

How does it feel to be betrayed like this? You were promised glory through the #Patonplan and now it all turns out to be a random asshole who gave Kirk Cousins two mega millions deals and is about to do the same in Denver.

Your GM is a powerless dweeb who will do nothing better than tread water for awhile.

Yea, no way an unhappy pro athlete could ever force the hand of management once he had signed a contract.

According to Over The Cap, Green Bay is currently ($30,402,970) over the cap.

Spotrac has Green Bay at $-28,251,758.

The Packers already have 10 starters set to become free agents and they're going to have to cut at least one of the Smith bros, if not both.

Even if the Packers could squeeze Rodgers' and Adams' contract under the cap, why would Rodgers want to come back to a depleted team?

Also interesting is per CBS sports radio if Rodgers decides he does want to be traded the Packers are demanding for more than the Stafford trade value bc Rodgers is a back-to-back MVP.

Stafford deal was valued at 3 first rd picks and a 3rd. Giving up more than that would decimate the Broncos future
