Brian Gutekunst has a goal and his preferred outcome begins with a commitment from 2021 NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers to play for the Packers next season.
But the process in Green Bay might not play out on the general manager's ideal schedule. Because Gutekunst and head coach Matt LaFleur want to understand Rodgers' plans before making other moves, Gutekunst said Wednesday at a scheduled press conference there are "no deadlines" where Rodgers is involved.
This means that as of Wednesday, the Packers are in much the same position they were after the loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs: waiting for the Rodgers domino to fall.
