Jerry Jeudy knows just how close he was to being paired with an elite quarterback….he just needed to wait a little bit more time.
Aaron Rodgers will not be moving on to see if the grass is greener on the other side as he reportedly agreed to a four-year, $200 million extension with the team Tuesday, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The deal makes Rodgers the highest paid NFL player of all time.
Rodgers will receive $153 million guaranteed as part of the new deal. Rodgers will reportedly receive $50 million per season, per Jay Glazer.

Rodgers spent last offseason feuding with the team. Speculation circulated prior to the 2021 season suggesting Rodgers was frustrated with Green Bay’s front office and wanted to leave. That led to speculation that he might be headed to the Broncos. Rodgers eventually reworked his contract to make it easier for him to leave the team at the conclusion of the 2021 season.

Wilson had been rumored to be on his way out all offseason and it finally happened.
