Gutekunst doesn’t want the above. Hence Rogers has leverage. The whole “he’s under contract, end of story” position is overly simplistic. I negotiate for a living. What do you do? |

No, they won’t be “forced” to do anything and the chances of him actually sitting out and wasting one of the few years he has left while on a team that’s a SB contender are extremely slim.

![]() I guess that makes you an expert here, huh? ![]() Sitting out is also an empty threat. He’s 38 years old and isn’t going to waste one of the few years he has left when his team has left a shot at a SB. It’s not happening. |

Also, for the no trade clause crowd, Rogers’ ability to threaten retirement if he’s traded to an unacceptable destination is real leverage.

Do you even ****ing read? AJ Hawk, who spoke to Rodgers personally, has already said that it’s pretty much a 0% chance that he retires.

It’s possible but seems unlikely. Hawk’s opinion isn’t gospel. |

So you prefer to take the word of the clickbait media over a known friend of Rodgers who spoke to him personally about the situation?
