Dan Orlovsky Slams the Packers Over their Treatment of Aaron Rodgers

Matt LaFleur-coached Green Bay Packers suffered a disappointing end to their 2020 NFL campaign. The Packers suffered a narrow 26-31 loss to eventual Super Bowl winners Tampa Bay Buccaneers earlier this year. Almost immediately, veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers sparked rumors of a potential exit from Wisconsin this summer.

But despite assurances that he is set to remain with the Packers in 2021, Rodgers is reportedly unhappy with the ongoing contract talks. In fact, just prior to the 2021 NFL reports, multiple NFL insiders claimed that Aaron was set to be traded.

It remains a possibility that Rodgers could still make an unforeseen departure from Lambeau Field.

Lead Analyst gives his take on Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers

 

Former Detroit Lions quarterback-turned-analyst Dan Orlovsky gave his tale on the unpleasant rumors pertaining to Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers.

“My issue with the Packers coming out and saying ‘We’re not trading Aaron Rodgers‘ is this. You guys were planning on this situation last year? This is not Seattle, where it’s like, well, Russell, he’s not happy, we don’t have an answer.”

“You guys already started to plan for this. It was your choice for that. So don’t come out and say, well, we’re not going to trade them. When you guys should have been at least in your thought process prepared for this when you took Jordan Love,” Orlovsky said on the show.
