While the football world waits for a decision from Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers and the reps for the four-time NFL MVP are working on a new deal that would make him the highest-paid player in the NFL if he decides to return to Green Bay in 2022, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
“Behind the scenes, I’m told, the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers’ representation are working on a deal,” Rapport said Monday.
Rapoport said “nothing is done” but the Packers want to have the framework of a deal in place in case Rodgers does decide to return to the team for another season or more.
