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.

Which is why it’s extremely unlikely.

This is the media pushing a narrative because they want it to happen, just like they did with Watson and Wilson.

The only thing Rogers is forcing is for GB to fire its GM.

Rodgers may be a diva, but Green Bay also handled him the complete wrong ****ing way. And that's the greater problem with their situation right now, not Aaron.

That's a franchise that needs to experience perpetual losing with a mediocre QB. Sounds like Jordan Love kinda sucks balls. If he were a bust, it'd be the start of a great character building journey for those people. Then maybe in the future when they do somehow manage to get a top QB again, they'll remember the lessons they learned and take greater advantage of the time that he's on their team and kicking ass for them.

That's a fun number to figure out as well, for both the Packers and whomever tries landing him.

And they are incredibly fortunate they ran into the Bears 3rd string QB in the NFCCG and still barely overcame that D.

Without that good fortune, Aaron Rodgers and GB are likely in the Rivers/Chargers category. Just staggering incompetence to mismanage such an embarrassment of riches like Green Bay has.

You have to go back to 1992. Three decades worth of fans that have never known what it's like to have generic flavor at QB.

AJ Hawk said the chances he retires are basically 0% and the reports he wants Gutekunst fired are garbage.

And unless he’s truly willing to go down that road, the Packers simply aren’t going to trade him.

They are built to win now and just lost their 2nd consecutive NFCCG. He’s not going anywhere.

Which is weird bc we haven’t heard Jack shit about Jordan Love. Is he good? Does he suck?

You’d think they’d happily trade Rodgers to Denver, ask for multiple 1st Rd picks, Jerry Jeudy and ride into their new era with a cheap QB and multiple 1st rd picks to build the team.

They drafted that kid in the first round and he’s had a year to learn. It sounds like they don’t believe in him.

The problem with trading him is, yeah, you'll get a shit load of first round picks. But those will immediately become end of the first rounders because duh, said team will have Rodgers.

I don't see a way he's traded.

Should've taken the 49ers offer. Now any trade pales unless it's 3 firsts + players

yeah, it needed to be before the draft to guarantee a top 5 pick. No way they trade him now. Plus he already sort of started to do damage control at the Kentucky Derby last weekend (*sort of).

With his contract the Packers can move him after this year.

But man, does that create a giant shit show of a season.

That’s why I’d ask for Jeudy as part of the deal. Cheap cost effective first rd receiver for 4 more years to help your new young QB.

And really Denver is going to be in some money trouble soon anyway if they get Rodgers.

Chubb needs paid, Sutton needs paid. You just paid Simmons and Glasgow a lot of money.

They don’t have money for gaurantees like we do
