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.

All of this plus it sounded like Rodgers was livid that the team considered trading him. So he really didn't want to go somewhere else, but then once they decided to keep him now he wants out? Get over yourself.

He will stay, play, get injured during the season and end his career.

You need to start coming to terms with the fact that Rodgers is leaving next Spring and the Broncos are a likely destination

I hear Aaron was spotted at the Aurora Best Buy with a well known local realtor. The deal is done. The Broncos are going to surprise attack the Chiefs with announcement as they are taking a page out of the Cobra Kai playbook on this one. Be afraid, be very afraid.

I’ve already said multiple times that I can see him being traded next offseason. It’s probably even the most likely scenario.

And I really couldn’t care less if it’s the Broncos.

I'm there as well. Although I'm not convinced it's going to be to Denver. With other teams in the mix, there will be better offers. Might even be Vegas, Pitt, Miami. etc.

If Rodgers is smart he’ll angle for WFT bc they have an amazing roster. The Dolphins would be excellent too.

If I were him those would be my preferred trade destinations

Agreed. Not sure GB will trade him to Washington, but I also didn't think Baltimore would ever trade Brown to us.

I know Miami and Philly will be players for Deshaun Watson and each has draft capital, especially Philly, plus young QB's to offer (Jalen Hurtz is a local kid). I've always felt that if Rodgers is traded next off season, there's a decent chance that Denver misses out on landing he and Watson. I think when it's all said and done, they're more likely to sign someone like Jimmy G. We'll see...

Adam Schefter probably just introduced this rumor for First Take and ESPN's other talking head shows to have a never-ending topic to obsess over after their beloved Dak Prescott topic was resolved.

Schefter is the Rodger's camp stool pigeon.

He has turned into an advocate and not a reporter.

Rodgers says he loves his coaches and teammates in Green Bay.

He probably said the same thing to Olivia Munn and Danica Patrick once upon a ****ing time.

Rodgers should just go live happily ever after and .
