Asked about Rodgers’s future during his year-end press conference, general manager Brian Gutekunst said:
“He’s going to take some time. We made a big commitment last year. I want everybody back.”
Inking a three-year, $150.8 million extension last March, Rodgers endured his worst statistical season as a pro, throwing for 3,695 yards with 26 touchdowns and a career-high 12 interceptions as he struggled to adjust to life without All-Pro wideout Davante Adams.
Gutekunst was also asked about his confidence in backup QB Jordan Love should Rodgers express a desire to play elsewhere or potentially retire.
“I definitely think he’s ready to play. I think he feels that way. I think he’s chomping at the bit,” said Gutekunst.
Never one to shy away from the headlines, expect Rodgers to be the talk of the NFL’s offseason again.
