Last week, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers stated on The Pat McAfee Show that he wouldn’t entertain returning to the team if they went through a rebuild. That seems like a fairly reasonable request for a 39-year-old quarterback, but there’s no reason to expect that general manager Brian Gutekunst is going to pull the plug on the 2023 season should Rodgers come back.
During the Packers’ bye week in 2022, Gutekunst said that the contract the team handed Rodgers last offseason “wasn’t certainly for one year” when asked if he wants the four-time MVP to return to the team next season.
