Rodgers is way too competitive to give up his season this early. If anything, he'll continue to hold out until the Packers decide enough is enough.
Hope I am wrong, but I think this is now officially a non-story.
What? Rodgers holding out? The opt out story is the only non-story to this saga. It was just media driven like oh, he could save himself "X money" by doing this... but if they really listened to Rodgers public comments to date, he doesn't care about saving money. He's pissed at the FO in the Packers organization, he said "people are what matters" like 20 times in his interview with Kenny Mayne. Unless the Packers FO can make amends, he likely holds out until the Packers trade him... this season or next (with him sitting out and basking in the glory of seeing Gutnekunst's Chosen One struggle).
I’ll place my chips on Kaaron plays this year for the packers.

I've said as much from Day 1 of the drama. When its all said and done, nothing to see here....
Even with a predictable ending, I have thoroughly enjoyed the show.

So he goes from Olivia Munn, to Kelli rohrbach, to Danica Patrick, and now that he's with Woodley he decides to get married?? I dont believe his decision making has been very sound for a while now...I see him screwing this up as well.
Finding a willing beard is getting tougher.

This thing could go any number of ways. I have my chips on him missing games. Could be two or three, could be 17, we'll see. I think that's more likely than any kind of kiss and makeup.
Doesn't matter though. Marc Ross over at NFLN tells me that "with or without Rodgers" Packers still best team in North.
Rodgers says he's spent offseason 'working on myself' Associated PressJuly 5, 2021 — 7:45pm
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers says he has spent this offseason focusing on improving himself in every respect, and that goes beyond making sure he's in top physical shape.
Rodgers skipped Green Bay's mandatory minicamp last month amid reports that he doesn't want to return to the Packers. At a Monday news conference to promote his participation in Tuesday's televised golf event with Tom Brady, Bryson DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson, Rodgers was asked how the last few months have gone for him.
Aside from a brief ESPN interview in late May, Rodgers hasn't commented much about his football future since ESPN reported in the hours before the draft that he doesn't want to return to the Packers.
"Sometimes, the loudest person in the room is not the smartest person," Rodgers said. "Sometimes the loudest person in the room is not the person who has all the facts on their side or the truth on their side. Sometimes there's a lot of wisdom in silence. Sometimes there's a lot of wisdom in being selective on what you say. This offseason I've spent a lot of time working on myself."
Rodgers then went into detail on just what type of work he had done.
"I've focused on in the offseason about how to take care of myself — the total package," Rodgers said. "Not just my physical self with workouts but my spiritual self with my own mindful practices, my mental health as well. What's the best way to take care of that? And that's what I've been doing this offseason. That's why I've taken the time I've taken and done the things or not done the things that I've done. And I'm very thankful for that time.
"I'm very thankful for the opportunity to work on my mental health. I haven't dealt with bouts of depression or anything that for whatever reason are OK to talk about if you're talking about mental health. I've just been really trying to think about what puts me in the best frame of mind."
Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst has said he has no plans to trade Rodgers. Packers officials have said they want to keep Rodgers in Green Bay in 2021 and beyond.
Rodgers was promoting "The Match," a made-for-TV event that pits the Packers quarterback and DeChambeau against Brady and Mickelson.

Not only has aaron been jerking the packer fans off for the last few months, apparently he has been focusing on his own package as well.... physically, and mentally (whatever the hell that means)
