According to Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports — Aaron Rodgers won’t even think about playing for the Green Bay Packers again unless general manager Brian Gutekunst is fired.
The 37-year-old is reportedly willing to take “hardline options” like retiring and paying back some $23 million to the team to get his point across.
Over the weekend, Gutekunst fielded questions about Rodgers and stated he hasn’t heard anything about getting fired from the quarterback directly.
“Aaron hasn’t said anything like that to me and certainly hasn’t said anything publicly,” Gutekunst said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. “I think that’s a little unfair to put that on him. Certainly don’t like to hear those things, but no, nothing’s been communicated directly to me.”
“I can’t fathom [him] not being in Green Bay,” LaFleur said of Rodgers on Saturday. “That’s where my mind’s at. I don’t only love the player, but I love the person. I love working with him on a daily basis; I think we all do — from the players in that locker room to the coaching staff. Again, I don’t even want to let my mind go there.”
