Aaron Rodgers is officially back with the Green Bay Packers. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Rodgers signed his new contract with the Packers.
The deal comes a day before the start of the new league year and is expected to both make Rodgers the NFL’s highest-paid player and give the Packers considerable salary-cap relief in 2022.
The contract is the final piece of the puzzle in terms of getting Rodgers back in Green Bay for 2022 and beyond. Now, the Packers can push forward with getting under the cap before Wednesday’s deadline.
