The drama and rumors surrounding Aaron Rodgers refuse to die down. The quarterback is reportedly disgruntled with the franchise regarding his treatment over the past few seasons.

Despite Rodgers carrying his side to the NFC title game over the past few seasons, the franchise hasn’t given any clear indication that they wish to keep the quarterback for the long run. 

While Packers Head Coach Matt LaFleur and GM Brian Gutekunst have maintained that the side has no intentions of trading Rodgers, there’s been little to no talk about a possible contract extension. 

With the 2020 MVP and the franchise that drafted him now suffering from a strained relationship, an NFL analyst feels it’s on the Packers to fix the mess.

Aaron Rodgers deserves a contract extension  

Appearing on NFL Live, former NFL player turned analyst Jeff Saturday pinned the blame on the Green Bay Packers organization. 

“This is on the Packers. They have screwed this up from the beginning, and continue to allow this thing to fester, which is negative, all the way,” he said.

“Bring Rodgers back to your building or all of you go out together. GM, head coach, whoever needs to be there. Get them out there, sit down and get this thing settled.”

The analyst said that this saga boils down to a relationship issue between the two parties. One which the Packers must fix at all cost.

“At the end of the day, this is 100% a relationship issue. I don’t care what any fan says. Whether you’re on the side of the Packers, or on the side of Aaron Rodgers, these guys got to work together every day. They got to have meetings every day. You have to get this settled,” he said.

“Get this thing fixed. Get him to sign an extension. It should be the easiest extension in the NFL and just get the deal done,” he added.

Given how things stand, what do you think the Packers must do for Aaron Rodgers to make amends?
