As a life-long Chicago Bears fan I am thrilled to say that, according to ESPN sources, the Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is so upset with the Packers organization that he has told some in the organization that he does not want to return to the team.
Let's face it, Rodgers is still upset with the Packer's organization for drafting another QB in last year's draft.
Via ESPN:
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.
This story broke, of course, just hours before the NFL Draft which is set to air live tonight. Could this open the door for some possible trade options? After all, according the ESPN article, the San Francisco 49ers (who have the 3rd pick in tonight's draft) called the Packers a recently as Wednesday night.
Who knows what will happen. All I know is that he destroys my Bears every year so I'm down with anything that gets him out of our division so we can go back to being the mediocre .500 football team we should be.
