After weeks of trying to figure out what was going on in Aaron Rodgers’ head through “sources” and second-hand observations from friends, the man himself finally appeared on “SportsCenter” to set the record straight.
Rodgers spoke publicly for the first time about his feelings towards the Packers franchise, which have reportedly soured to a point of no return since the 2020 season ended. He told Kenny Mayne – who was making his final appearance on the ESPN program – that his frustrations aren’t necessarily about the team drafting Jordan Love, but more how GM Brian Gutekunst handled things afterwards.
“With my situation, look, it’s never been about the draft pick, picking Jordan,” Rodgers said. “I love Jordan; he’s a great kid. [We’ve had] a lot of fun to work together. Love the coaching staff, love my teammates, love the fan base in Green Bay. An incredible 16 years.
“It’s just kind of about a philosophy and maybe forgetting that it is about the people that make the thing go. It’s about character, it’s about culture, it’s about doing things the right way.”
