Rodgers also spent basically all of the season speaking weekly on the Pat McAfee Show. Lot of dumb discussion, but be peppered in bits of information throughout the year that more/less add up to a statement. He’s unhappy or at least uncomfortable with the lack of control over his fate, he wants to play into his 40’s, he wants to retire a Packer, he was surprised and seemingly annoyed with the Love pick, and his strong 2020 season threw off timelines for the team. That plus his contract structure all pretty much adds up to: the team was planning to move on after ‘21, he doesn’t want that, the team doesn’t want to do that anymore because of how he’s playing, but if he’s going to stay here he wants more control of his fate. Everything is reasonable on all fronts.

Summary: The FO gambled to "send a message" and lost.
