There are three more years remaining on Rodgers‘ current deal.

This entire situation with Aaron Rodgers seems to be centered on whether or not he’ll leave the team. That’s the wrong way to look at it because there’s zero chance that happens.

We need to end the nonsense about Rodgers dipping out of Green Bay. That’s just not going to occur, and you’re living in a fantasyland if you think it will.

Now, what is almost certainly going to happen is that Rodgers is going to end up getting paid a bag of cash to stick around.

If I had to guess, Rodgers wants a deal that makes sure Jordan Love never sees the field. Rodgers will want a deal that makes it borderline impossible to cut him for several more seasons.

How much money will Rodgers be able to secure for himself in a new deal? He’ll make more than $40 million annually at a minimum. It could go even higher and probably will.

Packers fans should breathe easy because he’s not going anywhere. That much I’m very confident in.
