“It was a triple slap” – NFL Insider Slams Packers For Their Treatment of Aaron Rodgers
Follow Us
Two-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers has dealt with more controversy than he would have liked over the last couple of months. Despite proving himself year after year, there are always some people who question the ability of Aaron Rodgers before the start of the season. Rodgers has now thrown for more than 4,000+ yards in three of his last four seasons in the NFL.
The only year he didn’t was in 2017 when he was injured and played just seven games that season. Granted, last year A-Rod threw for about 400 yards lesser than he did in 2018 but he still crossed the 4,000+ yards mark. Over the last two years, Rodgers had just six interceptions to his name. For comparison, reigning Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes had 17 interceptions in that period while NFL MVP Lamar Jackson had nine. So clearly, Rodgers must be doing something right.

“If you’re trading up to go get a guy that tells you that the organization loves the player. They’re waiting for the player to step in…..they’re clearing space to move on from Aaron Rodgers at some point in time.”
“So they gave up the first-round pick and I think they gave up an additional mid-round pick. So they gave up a lot of picks where they could have gotten one of those players to step in and help Aaron Rodgers rather than compete with him for a starting spot,” Schefter said on ESPN’s Get Up.
