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.

Seems like there is too much fire and smoke with this situation to think that it ends up well for Rodgers staying in GB. Question is - what's the price for a 37 year old QB that is still playing at a very high level?

2020 was statistically his best year ever, which is saying something. I just can't imagine what the price would be, especially at this point with R1 being done.

Drew Lock is your quarterback. Deal with it.

Not happening now, brosef. There isn't enough bullets left to pull it off.

It was never going to happen before the draft.

Man the media is trying to sell this story hard.

It could happen. Denver can't win a trophy without buying it.

If they had invested that Jordan Love pick into the defense, the Pack may have been facing us in the Super Bowl last year.

That's the pick that does it for me. It never made any sense to trade up there for Love in that situation.

Just curious overall, I have no thoughts that Denver can pull it off.

There is no way Rodgers is playing another snap in Green Bay. You can mark that down. This has been building for years and people don’t understand what a unique guy he is. If you think he won’t just retire and go do his own thing, you’re sorely mistaken. Quite frankly, the guy doesn’t love football enough to keep playing in a place he hates.

I can assure you finances are not an issue as he’s an extremely intelligent guy who does not live a super exorbitant lifestyle. I’m sure he has plenty of money saved up. Not to mention his future wife is doing just fine as well.

He is done in Green Bay, one way or another. If the Packers continue to be morons and play hardball, they’ll end up with nothing for him. Except some returned bonus money which is probably all they care about anyway.

If Rodgers really wanted to **** over the Packers....he would retire so they get nothing in return.

What about the Giants? They seem to have a lot of draft capital next year.

Wasn't their defense that cost them a chance at the SB though.

That TD they gave up to Brady before half was brutal. The D came up with big plays but also gave them up, too.

Obviously he doesn’t need another dime after being paid hundreds of millions in salary & endorsement cash through the years. If he gets the Jeopardy job, that could be upwards of $10M per year for him.
