Packers 'Committed' To Aaron Rodgers, Not Trading Him

Apr 30, 2021 5:38 PM

The Green Bay Packers remain committed to Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback and have no plans to trade him.

"We've been working through this for a little while now, and I just think it may take some time," general manager Brian Gutekunst said. "But he's a guy that kind of makes this thing go. He gives us the best chance to win, and we're going to work towards that end."

Gutekunst discussed Rodgers hours after a report earlier in the day that the quarterback has become so disgruntled with the team that he has told some members of the organization he does not want to return to the Packers.

Rodgers, 37, is under contract through the 2023 season but has no more guaranteed money left on his deal.

"We're not going to trade Aaron Rodgers," Gutekunst said.

Aaron Rodgers Wants To Leave Packers

Apr 29, 2021 8:07 PM

Aaron Rodgers has told some within the Green Bay Packers that he has become so disgruntled with the franchise that he does not want to return to the team.

Rodgers has not budged from his stance despite being visited by several key members of the Packers.

There are some members of the Packers that aren't sure when Rodgers would report if he's not traded.

Green Bay traded up to select quarterback Jordan Love during last year's draft and didn't inform Rodgers in advance of that decision.

"As we've stated since the season ended, we are committed to Aaron in 2021 and beyond," Brian 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."

The Packers have offered Rodgers a contract extension this offseason.

The San Francisco 49ers reached out to the Packers about a possible trade for Rodgers on Wednesday.
