Aaron Rodgers quashes reports of him signing a $200 million contract with the Packers

Aaron Rodgers is a champion quarterback who ensures brilliance on the field and drama off the field. He is surely one of the finest talents in the game at the moment, which is why he was named the MVP for the second consecutive year. However, as soon as Rodgers’ season ended for the Packers, speculations about his future started surfacing.

Not long ago, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport had claimed that Aaron is truly torn about where he wants to play in the coming season. Ian had claimed that apart from the Packers, the Broncos are showing great interest in roping in Rodgers. In fact, Broncos GM George Paton was willing to “exhaust all options” to bring him in.

However, recently, as per a report by ESPN, the Packers offered a long-term contract to Aaron Rodgers that would transform the whole quarterback market. According to the report, the 4-time MVP signed a new 4 year, $200 million extension to remain in Green Bay, possibly for the rest of his career.

However, what comes as a new twist in the tale, Aaron Rodgers has claimed that he hasn’t signed a contract with the Packers as of yet. However, he agreed that he is going to stay with them during the next season. “Hey everyone, just wanted to clear some things up; YES I will be playing with the Packers next year, however, reports about me signing a contract are inaccurate, as are the supposed terms of the contract I ‘signed’. I’m very excited to be back,” he Tweeted.

With all that has transpired around Aaron Rodgers since the past year or so, this twist doesn’t really come as a surprise as the QB has a knack for surprising everyone. The biggest positive that comes out of this is that Rodgers will definitely play for the Packers in the coming season.
