If he thinks the team is a mess right now and is bothered guys he was reportedly close to are gone, I don’t see why he wouldn’t consider playing elsewhere. Granted, the franchise tag would make it hard for him to leave since it’s especially a raw deal for a guy who is the best at his position and getting up there in years. Wasn't Rodgers one of the players who talked about being "all in" a while back? I'd have to venture that this change probably bodes well for him.

I think it depends upon if Aaron has to learn a new system, If so he might decide for a warmer climate . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the amount of shakeups in GB in the last 3-4 days, I would not consider much of anything a guarantee. Rodgers deal is up after 2019. As others mentioned, maybe he wants to see how the new GM does, see if MM is still the HC beyond 2019. In 2 years time, there may be a lot better places to go based on the talent that might be on other teams. Lots can change in 2 years in the NFL landscape.

Wonder if Rodgers won’t want to sign an extension this offseason with all of these changes - i.e. will want to see the new staff in place for a year before committing to staying for what may very well be the end of his career. Come on, you don't think Rodgers was informed about the moves before they were made? Rodgers might have even said, hey, things better change or I am gone after my contract. I don't think he would want to come back to this team as is. I am thinking he was well informed before hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't need/want another diva QB that gets special treatment, do we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Rodgers leaves, that has a bigger impact on the next five years than any draft picks made by the front office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers was allowed to shut it down after our playoff hopes were dead because he’s light years more important than any other player. Like it or not, Rodgers was kept in the loop on these moves. Now I’m sure he was allowed to express his opinion on the moves but I highly doubt his opinion had any affect on the decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you'll have to provide proof that Rodgers was kept in the loop. I can pretty much guarantee you he was not consulted on this anymore than any of the other team leaders. I'm sure the team knew prior to anyone on twitter, and I'm sure many expressed opinions both recently and over the past 7 years as well. But players just play.

My opinion is that I’d find it hard to believe that Rodgers wasn’t privy to the going’s on and was allowed the forum to express his opinion. Aaron Rodgers is the single most important person, by a country mile I might add, in this Packers organization right now and you’ll have a hard time convincing me he wasn’t kept in the loop.

Packerraymond Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Rodgers is not consulted on coaching moves/FO moves save maybe QB coach. I doubt they ran any of this by him. Offensive player acquisition maybe, not FO/coaching changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, I find it hard to believe they didn’t at the very least give the most important person in this organization a heads up first. I’m not saying they asked his permission but I find it hard to believe he would be treated as some random “just a player”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't see why someone would think he would be involved - it's not how businesses are run. Of course AR is important, but the franchise transcends even him. This decision outlasts Rodgers, his role pales in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
