Death, taxes, and Aaron Rodgers making it all about himself in the offseason. The Green Bay Packers signed him to a massive deal before the start of last season, yet that may not be enough to keep him happy and on board.
Rodgers has once again hinted at possibly leaving the team, stating that he could win an MVPā not championshipsā in the right situation. The Packers donāt have a Super Bowl-caliber roster right now.
So, the multi-time MVP claims heās open to restructuring his contract to facilitate a trade, as his current deal would come with a hefty salary-cap charge of $31,623,570 for the upcoming campaign.
NFL News: Aaron Rodgers May Restructure His Contract To Facilitate A Trade
āThereās a lot of teams, because of COVID, that are strapped, and youāre seeing with a lot of different contracts, theyāre pushing more money out in deals,ā Rodgers said on The Pat McAfee Show.āTheyāre creating void years to allow for an easier cap hit, so there would have to be some adjustments, for sure.ā
āI hope thereās some gratitude on both sides if that happens,ā Rodgers added. āBut again, that doesnāt open the door for any conjecture, honestly, on my side. And Iām not saying that to be cryptic. Iāve got to figure out what I want to do, and then weāll see where all the parties at and what kind of transpires after that.ā
Rodgers is one of the greatest and most talented quarterbacks of all time, but that hasnāt translated into rings. So, maybe the Packers will finally say enough is enough and just cut ties with him while they still can.
There will be no shortage of teams interested in Rodgersā services, with the Indianapolis Colts and New York Jets as the likeliest destinations. For now, all we can do is wait and see how this never-ending drama unfolds.
