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.

The Broncos with Rodgers and without any playmakers around him ARE NOT a Super Bowl contender. That's the issue.

Yeah, I'm ready for an updated news cycle... I'm bored with the Rodgers nonsense.

Are they taking their entire WR corp, RB and Fant?

Gordon isn't that great. The other guy is a rookie.

They're talking about gutting their pass rush and trading either Jeudy or Fant as well.

Green Bay has superior talent to Denver in all of those areas and hasn't even made it to the Super Bowl in like 10 years.

You keep on hyping this super stupid bullshit because it isn't going to happen anyway.

The upside here is that it sure is nice that the Chiefs are so good that people have to make up silly fantasy scenarios to even think about challenging them.

They most likely are not getting more than 1 good starter. I’d bet it’s 1 starter and a bunch of draft picks. Maybe Drew Lock added since they liked him in the pre-draft process.

And so what if they lose Jeudy?

Being honest here, the Broncos have a lot of resources on their offense.

Sutton is a good WR, Hamler showed Flashes (he’s their version of Hardman) and Tim Patrick was actually quite good last year. I’d definitely take him over Robinson’s dumbass. That’s not counting Fant and the RB who they just drafted (hate that they got him).

And to be clear, that’s with bottom of the barrel QB play. Literally.

And their defense was actually decent when their QB wasn’t turning the ball over all the ****ing time. Just watch our games against them and it’s Lock giving the game away for them every time.

A QB like Mahomes or Rodgers changes everything. Your offense is better. Your defense is better bc they can sit on leads and pull their ears back.

It’s crazy that you think trading for Rodgers is not good bc what they have is any better.

If they trade away Chubb, who is going to pin their ears back? Von is completely unreliable at this point and they literally have nothing else.

It won't happen, which is too bad, because they'd be crippled for a long, long time, paying all of that just to come in 2nd every year.

Vic Fangio is an elite defensive mind. He’s always been good at fitting guys in much like Andy does on offense.

They haven’t had Von and Chubb healthy at the same time during Fangio’s tenure and he’s still got production.

Malik Reed. Undrafted player. 8 sacks last year.
Dre’mont Jones. 3rd rd pick. 6 sacks last year.

They won’t be crippled if they lose Chubb

Like I said, it's too bad it's not going to happen. You're way overestimating this.

Here's the deal though, what exactly is,"This?" It's ALL conjecture being pushed by the media. The Denver fan base has fallen for it, hook, line and sinker. Rodgers hasn't said a word. Will be very funny watching them cope when he does.
