For now, temporarily, we can put the trade rumors to bed. Aaron Rodgers is back in Green Bay. After months of speculation surrounding his future with the franchise, the quarterback turned up to Lambeau Field to report for the first day of training camp.

Since news had first broken out about his desire to leave the franchise on draft night, Rodgers had kept his cards close to himself. Not disclosing to anyone whether or not he had plans to put on the Packers uniform again, the QB let his actions do the talking by skipping his side’s OTAs and minicamp.

But now after months of drama which could be compared to that of a primetime soap opera, the quarterback is back. And in typical nonchalant fashion.

Some of the clauses of the apparent new deal struck between the two parties will see the 2023 year in Rodgers’ contract voided. Making him a free agent at the end of the season, the quarterback has also reportedly added a clause which will see the Packers lose the right to place the franchise tag on him in the future.
