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.

Good luck landing that gig.
I haven't caught any of them, but I'm looking forward to Lavarr Burton hosting.

And, that's why they shouldn't do it for Rodgers.

Donkey bastard is drooling all over Rodger's dick. He can't draft and develop a guy so he is going to trade for one again. POS


No end to the hate I have for that horse-faced bitch.

If he's definitely not returning, what bargaining power does Green Bay have? Everyone knows they have to make the trade.

They let him sit. He's 37 years old. Sitting out a year isn't going to help him at all.

He doesn't play, therefore no pay, and no chance to get stats/Superbowl ... decent leverage since Rodgers is 38 next season.

Not really "bargaining" power per say, but they do have leverage, because if he's not returning, he does not get paid and GB can demand a % of his signing bonus to be paid back. They can let him rot in retirement and he likely won't ever play in the NFL again.

Just guessing but he's probably seeing all these other teams loading up to give their ancient QB's one last shot before the inevitable retirement and rebuild and GB's attitude seems to be "**** it, Rodgers can carry the offense. Concentrate on the defense."

He's got that "why doesn't my husband buy ME flowers" mindset...

That situation ends up badly for Green Bay. $37 million asset not playing?
