Rodgers continued, showing his appreciation for Brian Gutekunst,
"I decided when I came back that I was going to be all in with the team and all in to see things move forward to a better place. And that's what the conversations were about, you know, during the offseason, was about being a part of those conversations that impact my ability to do my job. And I, you know, from one of the first days, Brian [Gutekunst] and I sat it down and got on the same page, and it's been a really nice fall and winter. I appreciate his approach, how it's been, and it's been very meaningful to me. So I'm thankful for that relationship, where it's at at this point, and that's made my life that much more enjoyable. So I gotta give Brian a lot of credit for meeting me in the middle."
It sounds as if Rodgers will be ending his career as a Green Bay Packer.
Aaron Rodgers trade rumors
Since Aaron Rodgers delayed coming into training camp last year, rumors persisted, stating that he was on his way out of Green Bay. Rumor has it that, on draft day, the San Fransicio 49ers were ready to do a blockbuster trade for Rodgers, but the Packers said no.

Then, there were rumors that Rodgers may leave the Packers and play for either the Las Vegas Raiders or Denver Broncos. But apparently, as it stands right now, Rodgers seems to be content with ending his career in Green Bay.
ESPN NFL analyst Marcus Spears was convinced Wednesday that Rodgers would be gone at the end of the season and that it wouldn't be a football decision but a personal one.
But Rodgers sounded like he got exactly what he wanted, which was a say-so in the direction the team is going, which is what he wanted in the first place.
