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.

Their offense is a dumpster fire, and while Lock is a lot of the problem, their OL is a mess, and they don't have a skill position player who has accomplished anything other than the occasional flashy play.
Exactly. No one on offense has proven to be elite. Sutton and Fant are maybe above average at their positions, and they have a few WRs with potential and a couple decent RBs. With an O-line that was among the worst.

I actually think their defense can be at least close to elite if they stay healthy, but of course they go way overboard. To them, adding a few decent players to their secondary and getting Von Miller back automatically vaults them from allowing 28 pts/game to the stingiest D in the world.

Then you have Fangio...

Did the Packers think he'd fold or something he doesn't seem like the kind of guy to do that

Packers:

People like to make a big deal out of players sitting out, but for the elite players, the fines are negligible. It's obviously not a good look, but when Rodgers will likely make 40 times that or more this season, it's not like it's really a big concern for either side.

Put another way...Peyton Manning's endorsement money dwarfs the football money.

Sutton's best season would have placed him around 14-15 this season...

If Rodgers were to be traded after holding out of camp...how bad would that screw up the Broncos offensive system? They would be moving at least one offensive player (Jeudy/Fant?) and Rodgers would have zero practice time developing chemistry and learning the terminology/playbook.

It's a pretty big deal to go from the #2 OL to #25...Denver has had their staring QB injured nearly every season going back to 2015. Not a great combination for a 38 year old QB...

Packers having the 2nd best OL in the NFL played a big part in his MVP level season last year...that element would be gone.

Q- How long does it take for an O line to gel?

A - As long as the Jesuits say it does, bitch!

Wouldn't the refs just rig it so that his O-line would be allowed to hold more?

Also, the Packers can choose not to fine him at all.
