He spoke at length on wanting some kind of input on important personnel decisions (like the hiring of Matt LaFleur and the unceremonious release of certain veterans) and his impression that he was a "lame-duck" in the eyes of an organization that wasn't committed to him past next year. He did not hold back and gave a very explanatory and thorough breakdown of why he was unhappy with the Packers and what the future holds. Rodgers was asked just that during his first press conference of the season. There were rumblings that Rodgers was unhappy with the way the franchise was run by Brian Gutekunst, but there wasn't anything particularly substantive. It clearly wasn't a "trade me or I'll retire" ultimatum. The thing is, we the people still don't have a complete understanding of what the problem actually was. Rodgers showed up to the start of training camp yesterday looking very much like a man who didn't have a care in the world. The organization agreed to void the final year of Rodgers' contract in 2023 and, from the sounds of it, essentially promised to trade him next offseason if he's still displeased with how things are going.
