Reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers has told some within the Packers organization he does not want to return to the team next season, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
President Mark Murphy, general manager Brian Gutekunst and head coach Matt LaFleur are aware of Rodgers's sentiment.
"As we've stated since the season ended, we are committed to Aaron in 2021 and beyond," Gutekunst told ESPN on Thursday. "Aaron has been a vital part of our success and we look forward to competing for another championship with him leading our team."
On Wednesday, the 49ers reached out to the Packers about acquiring Rodgers, but no formal offer was made, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
