The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Packers-want-Aaron-Rodgers-back-in-2023-but-under-one-big-condition-20230223-0032.html" target="_blank">Green Bay Packers</a> have been preparing for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Aaron-Rodgers-exit-from-the-Packers-has-taken-a-massive-turn-of-events-20230222-0050.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers</a>' departure for three years now. They took <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Aaron-Rodgers-teammate-confident-QB-will-return-to-Packers-but-trusts-in-Jordan-Love-20230209-0020.html" target="_blank">Jordan Love </a>in the first round of the NFL Draft, a somewhat shocking move at the time that makes perfect sense right now. 
Rodgers has hinted at leaving Lambeau Field way too often lately, way more than any front office would want. And reports claim that his relationship with GM Brian Gutekunst has never been exactly close. 
That's why it's not much of a surprise to see Gutekunst raving about Jordan Love, going as far as to say that he needs to play next season. Needless to say, that's a huge sign of what he believes <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Aaron-Rodgers-may-not-be-Jets-only-option-for-veteran-quarterback-20230130-0001.html" target="_blank">Rodgers will do.</a> 
<h2>Packers GM Says Jordan Love Needs To Play</h2> 
&ldquo;He needs to play. Jordan&rsquo;s done a great job working hard, so he&rsquo;s doing everything we&rsquo;re asking,&rdquo; Gutekunst said, per ProFootballTalk. "We took him for a reason back in 2020. He&rsquo;s been progressing nicely, and to see him kind of take the jump he did this past year was nice. Again, it&rsquo;s much different than going out there week in, week out, taking on the challenges when teams are game planning for you." 
&ldquo;We were talking earlier about the length of time it takes a quarterback to go from playing well to winning in this league, and he&rsquo;ll need to go through those things just like every other quarterback." the GM added. "He&rsquo;s taken some really good jumps and there&rsquo;s more out there for him, but I think the things that are out there for him, he&rsquo;s going to need to play to do that.&rdquo;

Rodgers recently came out of his darkness retreatment, so it's only a matter of time before he shares his decision with the rest of us mortals. Will he stay or will he go? It seems like the Packers will be all set, regardless.

With the 2023 NFL season warming up, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Packers-want-Aaron-Rodgers-back-in-2023-but-under-one-big-condition-20230223-0032.html" target="_blank">Green Bay Packers</a> are dealing with a huge dilemma: who's going to be their starting quarterback. Now, the team's front office has sent a message to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Aaron-Rodgers-teammate-confident-QB-will-return-to-Packers-but-trusts-in-Jordan-Love-20230209-0020.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love</a> about this situation that could put some extra pressure on both. 
The rumors about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Aaron-Rodgers-exit-from-the-Packers-has-taken-a-massive-turn-of-events-20230222-0050.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers' possible exit</a> are still alive. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Aaron-Rodgers-may-not-be-Jets-only-option-for-veteran-quarterback-20230130-0001.html" target="_blank">veteran quarterback</a> asked for a trade and the Packers are still considering if they must move on from him for the 2023 season. 
If they continue with this plan, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-jordan-love-packers-react-to-aaron-rodgers-comments-on-young-wrs-20220818-0017.html" target="_blank">Jordan Love</a> is set to take his place as starting quarterback. However, the team's front office has now <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-aaron-rodgers-opens-up-on-jordan-loves-tough-situation-at-packers-20220810-0048.html" target="_blank">addressed the situation</a> with a message for both quarterbacks. 
<h2>Aaron Rodgers or Jordan Love? Packers' front office gets real on their quarterback dilemma</h2> 
The Packers have to make a tough decision during this offseason. Green Bay could <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Aaron-Rodgers-honest-confession-on-how-Tom-Bradys-retirement-affected-him-20230207-0031.html" target="_blank">move on from Aaron Rodgers</a> after 18 seasons and give Jordan Love the opportunity to become a starter, but they are still doubtful about this situation. 
Brian Gutekunst has addressed this situation ahead of the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine week. The general manager talked about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Davante-Adams-persuades-Aaron-Rodgers-to-sign-with-Raiders-20230206-0001.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers</a> and Jordan Love with a message for both quarterbacks no matter which decision they take about them. 
"Our feelings haven't changed about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Aaron-Rodgers-completely-rules-out-one-team-as-destination-for-2023-20230202-0037.html" target="_blank">Aaron</a>, but we need to have some of those conversations about our team, where it's going, where he's at before we go forward," Gutekunst told reporters on Tuesday about Rodgers. 
Talking about Love, the general manager expressed his admiration for the young&nbsp;quarterback.&nbsp;"We're excited about him," Gutekunst said. "I've expressed to a lot of people that he needs to play. That's the next step in his progression. Jordan's done a great job, worked really hard so he's doing everything we're asking." 
It seems like the Packers are ready for any scenario; <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Tom-Bradys-retirement-may-lead-to-Raiders-push-for-Aaron-Rodgers-20230201-0046.html" target="_blank">Rodgers' exit or his continuity</a>. But surely they'll have an answer for the fans before the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-2023-What-would-the-Packers-get-if-Aaron-Rodgers-joins-the-Raiders-20230221-0033.html" target="_blank">2023 NFL Draft in order to see if they'll have more picks thanks to Aaron's trade</a> or not.

NFL News: Packers' front office sends message to Aaron Rodgers, Jordan Love

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Top-50-greatest-quarterbacks-in-NFL-history-20200522-0001.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers</a> has a big decision to make this offseason. Even though he signed a contract extension with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Top-25-NFL-teams-with-most-fans-20200501-0001.html" target="_blank">Packers</a> just a year ago, the veteran quarterback doesn't know whether he'll continue playing football. 
The 2022 NFL season may have given the 4x <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/25-Legendary-NFL-Super-Bowl-MVPs--20230126-0009.html" target="_blank">MVP</a>&nbsp;a lot to think about, since Green Bay failed to make the playoffs. Rodgers is owed $60 million next year, but he already said there's no way he's coming back for that money. 
However, he is not sure whether he'll return at all. Even if he doesn't retire,&nbsp;&nbsp;there's a chance Rodgers could be traded (the Jets and Raiders are&nbsp;potential landing spots). Aaron Jones prefers to think he'll be back in Green Bay, though. 
<h2>Aaron Jones believes Aaron Rodgers will return to Packers in 2023</h2> 
"I think he'll be back," Jones told&nbsp;Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless about Rodgers' future on Undisputed. "That's tough to turn down," Jones joked&nbsp;about the money Rodgers is due in 2023. 
"I think he wants to go out on his own, if he's retiring I think he wants to go out on his own," he added. "I definitely see him coming back and playing. Hopefully, that's in Green Bay. He's a great leader for us, a guy like that brings a lot of people along."

Aaron Rodgers' teammate confident QB will return to Packers, but trusts in Jordan Love

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-3-best-destinations-for-odell-beckham-jr.-20220506-0010.html" target="_blank">Green Bay Packers</a> took many by surprise when they selected Jordan Love in the first round of the 2020 NFL <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-draft-heres-why-packers-didnt-replace-davante-adams-in-round-1-20220429-0032.html" target="_blank">Draft</a>. However, he only started once so&nbsp;far, spending most of the time on the sidelines watching <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/aaron-rodgers-finally-talks-about-the-davante-adams-trade-20220429-0006.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers</a> at the helm of the offense. 
With the veteran quarterback staying for at least four more years after signing a massive extension, the future of Love at Lambeau Field has&nbsp;been put into question, despite the Packers made clear they believe in him . 
"We think he can be a good player, but we haven't seen enough. So I think this preseason will be good for him,"&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/packers-ceo-mark-murphy-opens-up-on-the-future-of-aaron-rodgers-jordan-love-20220408-0029.html" target="_blank">Mark Murphy</a> said in April. The Packers, however, could trade him for the right price. 
<h2>Rumor: The Packers would&nbsp;have an asking price for Jordan Love</h2> 
In an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, NFL Insider Ian Rapoport suggested that, even though moving him is not in&nbsp;their plans, the Packers would consider trading Jordan Love for a second or third-round pick.&nbsp; 
While Love is not the starter nor doesn't seem to have any chance to&nbsp;win the job anytime soon, he is still very important for the Packers as a backup. That explains why they would be reluctant to let him leave so easily, as Rapoport notes. 
&ldquo;I guarantee someone would trade a fifth-rounder for Jordan Love, I&rsquo;m sure somebody would trade a fourth-rounder for Jordan Love. But is that enough for the Packers, God forbid something happens to Aaron Rodgers, is that enough for the Packers to say &lsquo;you know what, we&rsquo;ll do this, we&rsquo;ll figure it out later?' They want the security of Love, who knows their system, who they still like. We don't know if he's gonna be what they think he's gonna be, but they still like him."

However, they need to prepare for the eventual transition to a new quarterback. Besides, it would be much better to keep a dependable backup, just in case.

NFL Trade Rumors: Packers may have price tag in mind for Jordan Love

The 2021 season didn't end as expected for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-davante-adams-breaks-the-silence-on-leaving-packers-to-join-raiders-20220323-0015.html" target="_blank">Green Bay Packers</a>, who fell short in their quest for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/how-many-super-bowl-rings-does-aaron-rodgers-have-20220121-0007.html" target="_blank">Super Bowl</a> after making their way to the postseason as heavy favorites for the Vince Lombardi.&nbsp; 
Some drama-filled weeks have followed their elimination at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/aaron-rodgers-confirms-hell-stay-at-packers-in-2022-denies-contract-reports-20220308-0021.html" target="_blank">Aaron Rodgers</a>' future looked up in the air - again. However, the veteran quarterback eventually decided to give it another shot and came back with&nbsp;a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/former-packers-wr-rips-selfish-aaron-rodgers-over-new-contract-20220323-0009.html" target="_blank">historic deal</a>. 
With the four-time NFL MVP tied down to a three-year contract, the future of Jordan Love has raised some questions. For how long he'll continue at the Packers? Is he going to replace Rodgers at some point? Here's what Packers president&nbsp;Mark Murphy had to say. 
<h2>Mark Murphy makes revealing comments about Aaron Rodgers, Jordan&nbsp;Love</h2> 
"We think he can be a good player, but we haven't seen enough. So I think this preseason will be good for him," Murphy said when asked about Jordan Love, as quoted by Tom Grossi, who later asked Murphy if the Packers would keep Love in case Rodgers decides to call it a career at some point. 
"Aaron is still playing at a high level and&nbsp;he said he wants to keep playing, but I think it's probably a year by year thing now," Murphy said. His contract suggests otherwise, but of course he can change his mind at some point.

<h2>Matt LaFleur believes Aaron Rodgers can play for as long as he wants</h2> 
&ldquo;I think he&rsquo;ll go as long as he wants to go,&rdquo; Packers coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/packers-aaron-rodgers-explains-what-makes-matt-lafleur-a-great-nfl-coach-20220111-0024.html" target="_blank">Matt LaFleur</a> told Sports Illustrated. &ldquo;I think he&rsquo;s got not only the talent and the mind, but the way he takes care of himself is as good as I&rsquo;ve seen. He&rsquo;s super-disciplined in terms of everything does from what he puts into his body to how he prepares physically and mentally. Those aren&rsquo;t conversations that we have regularly, so we&rsquo;re just going to take advantage of the time that he is with us and continue to try to work and grind and hopefully someday be able to get a Super Bowl.&rdquo; 
At 38, Rodgers is still chasing another Super Bowl ring before he decides to hung them up. The second championship has been quite elusive for the quarterback, whose three-year deal with Packers might be the last in his career. Only time will tell if he'll achieve that goal before 2025.
