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.

Poooooor Aaron.

With his elite OL, top flight WR (until he ran him out of town) and excellent running game.

That guy just can't catch a break.

If we all didn't know he was actually being somewhat serious this would be hilarious.

Or maybe if he wasn't insisting on tearing up his contract and getting a raise every other year, they'd have the cost certainty they'd need to plan on an extension for someone like Adams or even MVS.

And again, the guy's just a prick. If you're a WR, why would you stay for less than a premium? Why would you sign early and provide organizational stability?

Nobody - absolutely nobody - is more responsible for the state of the Packers the last 10 years than Aaron Rodgers. And none of it has anything to do with his talent - it's his petty selfishness that creates all these problems.
No wonder he went to play with Carr. After dealing with Rodgers' bitch ass...going back to work with your college QB has to sound like a dream come true. Even if he does SUCK!

I just can't imagine a world where MVS is comfortable enough to do with with Rodgers. Because god help him if he's wrong.
Exactly.

They had a chance to trade this guy for all the draft picks in the world. Should have taken it.

Donkos should trade for him …. Err wait I guess you need draft picks for that.

Are we not completely sure he just stayed with the Packers out of spite, took the last 150 million, and is now not so subtly sabotaging them?

Coaching needs to get better too.

At this point, they need to lean on those RBs.

Yeah I'd bet money that even if we went the Packers route and Veach picked out some young WRs to fill out the offense you know Mahomes would be working with them and coaching them up himself if need be to get the most out of them.

Look at what Mahomes said after Skyy Moore muffed that punt against the Colts. Said he talked to him and threw his support behind him to lift him up a bit. That wasn't even an offensive mistake.

I think that's the million dollar question. Are the coaches the ones doing that or is Rodgers running the offense and checking into pass plays all the time? Almost every single week you see their coach saying they need to use their RBs more like clockwork, but they never actually do it.

I'm guessing his teammates, coaches, and Packer fans care what he says though.

He got the $50MM annual he wanted, sit and stew in it shit bag.

Pay your QB that, then have to run the ball becasue you can't afford WR's and/or he wont' throw to the ones you have.

It's the god damn Hindenburg.

Rodgers hadn't been all that good for a few seasons prior to that 2019 campaign. And with all the caterwauling he did publicly about retiring, he's probably been doing it far longer behind the scenes to get his way. Why wouldn't Lafleur go and get someone he thought could be his QBOTF? The real mistake was not shipping Rodgers out for a kings ransom of assets.
