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.

It’s not going to work out for Denver either bc next Spring tons of teams will be in on Rodgers including the Dolphins if/when Tua doesn’t work out and they have multiple first round picks.

So if Denver does happen to get him next Spring they’ll be ****ed anyway bc they’ll have to give up a huge haul to do it

KnowMo: Look at Peter King’s opinion on the Rodgers situation!

Superturtle: You left this part out...

Yes, they could do that and totally destroy the relationship with the Packers' greatest player ever.

But eventually they'll come to the realization that Rodgers has more value now than he ever will, and that Denver is so desperate to end the past 5 years of suck that they don't need half of the league to compete for Rodgers to get a massive haul for him. All Green Bay has to do is convince the Broncos that they really are willing to let him sit for the year if they don't pony up.

I thought that relationship was already totally destroyed, hence why Rodgers is going to retire before he plays for the Packers again?



You don’t even make sense.

The Packers would have the Broncos and 10 other teams begging them for Rodgers next Spring. There are only a handful of elite QB’s in the league and that won’t change next Spring.

If you want the Packers to pick up the phone and listen then I suggest you offer them Chubb, Jeudy, multiple 1st’s and a 2nd

Why would they wait on a potential bidding war when they can trade him right now for a couple late 1st round picks, Hamler, Ojemudia, and their choice of Lock or Bridgewater?

How much value do you think a 39 year old QB who sat out a full season the year prior will have? It's certainly not as much as a 38 year old QB who is fresh off an MVP season.

I don't even think I'd want the Broncos to pursue Rodgers next offseason if we had to give up what it would take to get him this year. I'd much rather use those resources to trade up for a QB who is two decades younger and $40,000,000 cheaper.

This was his shtick when the Broncos were rumored to be interested in Peyton Manning. This is what he does.

Well then, sounds like your dream will completely die when Rodgers isn’t a Bronco at the start of TC.
