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.

They'd want Jeudy, Albert O, and at LEAST 3 firsts for a deal. Hell, it may take more than that, given they have no control over where those picks actually end up landing.

Favre only went to 2. GB seems to be an organization that gets stuck in the NFCCG. 3-6 record since Favre got there in the 90s.

Everyone always shit on Peyton for being a playoff choker, but by the time he got to Denver he had been to twice as many Super Bowls as Rodgers would be if he signed with the Donks tomorrow.

No idea why Peyton was crucified but Aaron gets a free pass.

Who gives him a free pass? Most people I know think he has very much under performed from a team standpoint. Most national media I listened to after the NFCCG last season crushed him for failing yet again with a trip to the SB on the line.

One thing that rarely gets mentioned about Green Bay's SB run that year is that their defense was pretty damn good.

From wikipedia:

The Packers offense ranked ninth in yards per game, tenth in total points, & fifth in passing yards. The defense ranked fifth in yards allowed and finished second in fewest points allowed (240, second best in team history), sacks (47), and interceptions (24), while also limiting quarterbacks to a 67.2 passer rating, first in the league.


He's still a fantastic QB though.

Rodgers was so bad in the NFCCG that I seriously wonder if he was on the take. Gifted three second half INTs, and the alleged "MVP" couldn't do shit with it? That just stinks to high heaven.

He will almost always just throw the ball away.
I'm not a Rodgers apologist. But an NFL QB doesn't make it to his late 30's taking the hits that made Luck decide to retire or have made big Ben a shell of his former self.

Sure, with a trip to the SB on the line, he could have been more aggressive. But as to your overall point:

Peyton fall down at the first sign of pressure Manning was still effective. Brady boy doesn't stand in the pocket and take the hits that he did in his twenties and he was just awarded a SB.

And you wanna know what? Patrick is going to do the same thing if he has the good fortune to still be playing in his late thirties.

Green Bay has had back to back HOF QB’s for a time-frame of almost 30 years now and only two Super Bowl trophies to show for that.

Missed opportunity.

The hype for our matchups is going to be at an all time level if that happens. Like, Montana-Elway hype.

If Aaron Rodgers was frustrated by Mike McCarthy in Green Bay then good luck with the Vic and Shurmur clown show in Denver.

I think he will retire if they don't trade him.

He leaves like 12 million on the table if he retires. It’s an empty threat and it’s not happening.
