Aaron Rodgers’s relationship with the Packers‘ front office was tumultuous, to say the least, before being traded to the Jets in April. Shortly after being dealt to New York, the quarterback opened up about Green Bay general manager Brian Gutekunst’s lack of communication and went as far as to say that Gutekunst not using FaceTime to communicate with Rodgers led to the two not talking.
In a lengthy interview with The Athletic, Rodgers doubled down on his initial comments and directly addressed Gutekunst’s March remarks saying he tried to reach Rodgers “many times,” but he could never get in contact with his signal-caller during the offseason.
“I have zero or one bar at the house, so you call me—sometimes it goes through, most of the time it drops and doesn’t go through,” Rodgers said. “Everybody who knows me, when I’m out west, they know that’s how to get a hold of me. So you can say whatever you want about that, but that’s the f------ truth.
