Report: Packers would prefer to trade Aaron Rodgers

The Green Bay Packers would prefer to trade quarterback Aaron Rodgers this offseason and "move on," ESPN reported Sunday.

The report, citing league sources, also says the 39-year-old four-time MVP is well aware of the Packers' feelings about the situation.

Financial reasons are said to be the major impetus behind a potential trade, with Green Bay projected to be $16 million over next season's salary cap. Rodgers is due $59.5 million in guaranteed money in 2023 and $49.25 million in 2024.

Rodgers said this past week on "The Pat McAfee Show" that he is "open to all honest and direct conversations" with the Packers.
