ESPN insider provides update on Aaron Rodgers timeline, trade potential

The Aaron Rodgers timeline is heating up. According to Diana Russini of ESPN, the Packers star quarterback will be informing Green Bay of his decision at any moment.

“Aaron Rodgers will be informing the Packers of his decision soon, per league sources,” tweeted Russini. “I’m told there are multiple teams with offers on the table but of course, nothing can happen until the Green Bay Packers allow a trade.”

Additionally, Russini added that there are multiple teams with offers on the table for Rodgers. Of course, that comes into play once Rodgers informs the Packers of their decision. Then, Green Bay either plays welcomes Rodgers back to their franchise, or finds a dance partner for an unprecedented move.

Regardless, Green Bay will receive a haul for Rodgers. Coming off his second-straight NFL Most Valuable Player Award, the star quarterback has a ridiculous price-tag. However, Russini is reporting multiple teams are willing to match it.

Aaron Rodgers has been building to this decision for over a year. As you can see, we’re almost at the finish line. His future will be determined sooner rather than later.

Packers GM on Rodgers: ‘I think you know obviously everything around here kind of centers around the quarterback.’

Meanwhile, Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst addressed the media on Wednesday, going over the team’s offseason priorities. But just where on the list does quarterback rating in terms of priorities for the Green Bay? Well according to Gutekunst, it’s at the center of their offseason universe.  

“ Yeah, I think you know obviously everything around here kind of centers around the quarterback; that’s kind of how we do things. So, it’s a big piece, it’s the domino that kind of has to fall before we go down, you know, other avenues. So, it’s important you know as we go through this and the puzzle pieces that we got to make fit. I think that’s the first one to go,” said Gutekunst.

Rightfully so, Gutekunst and the Packers are waiting for the first domino to fall. That domino is the gigantic-sized domino that is the decision of Aaron Rodgers. Once that happens, a bevy of moves will be coming — one way, or another.
