Aaron Rodgers reportedly turned down a contract extension from the Green Bay Packers that would have made him the highest-paid player in the NFL. The deal would have kept Rodgers with the Packers for five more seasons, according to ESPN.

The details behind the reported extension offer were not disclosed.

Rodgers had previously signed a four-year, $134 million extension in August 2018, which included a $57.5 million signing bonus. His current contract includes a base salary of $14.7 million and a $6.8 million roster bonus in 2021.

The average annual value of Rodgers’ contract is $33.5 million, ranking sixth in the NFL according to Over The Cap. His total contract value is the 12th highest in the league, with $78.7 million guaranteed, placing him third in the NFL in terms of guaranteed money.

Jordan Love Responds to Davante Adams.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – A few weeks ago, former Green Bay Packers receiver Davante Adams called Jordan Love a “f***ing baller.” At Packers OTAs on Tuesday, Love expressed his appreciation.

“Yeah, that’s awesome,” Love said after practice. “Being able to hear and get some praise from Davante – he’s a guy I played with and have a lot of respect for – is awesome.”

Appearing a few weeks ago on teammate Maxx Crosby’s “The Rush” podcast, Adams said he had no regrets about requesting a trade to the Las Vegas Raiders.

Had Adams signed a contract extension in Green Bay, he would have had one more chance to play alongside Aaron Rodgers in 2022 before moving onto Love, an ascending star, in 2023. Instead, Adams got his wish in joining Derek Carr in Las Vegas. The Raiders went 6-11 in 2022 before jettisoning Carr, signing Jimmy Garoppolo and struggling to an 8-9 finish.

Garoppolo, Brian Hoyer and rookie Aidan O’Connell combined for 19 touchdowns and 18 interceptions last year. Meanwhile, Love was second in the NFL with 32 touchdown passes. He threw 18 touchdowns vs. one interception during his final eight games of the regular season to carry the Packers to the playoffs with a 9-8 record.
