Aaron Rodgers was Rams’ trade target before Matthew Stafford agreed: to report

Aaron Rodgers’ future with the Green Bay Packers may have been in question right after the NFC Championship, but it doesn’t look like the team will be covering the superstar’s quarterback.

The Los Angeles Rams will take over Detroit Lions’ Matthew Stafford for Jared Goff, but the team has reportedly made an offer to the Packers for Rodgers.

Los Angeles Times sports reporter Sam Farmer told the NFL Network on Sunday that the Rams were trying to trade for Rodgers, but the Packers were “adamant” to keep him.

“They wanted to upgrade from Jared Goff,” he said. They felt there was a certain number of quarterbacks who could do that. I think Deshaun Watson was out of their price range. They hit Aaron Rodgers and the Packers were adamant that they didn’t trade him. ”

Rodgers’ future with the organization came into question after the game ended. He clarified the comments he made after the game while performing on The Pat McAfee Show last week.

“Obviously after the season I had, possibly MVP won and we clearly got a good run again, I don’t think there is any reason why I shouldn’t be back,” he said. “But there aren’t many absolute values, as you know, in this industry. So to make an absolute statement about something that is not absolute, I didn’t do it.”

Rodgers is likely to win the 2020 NFL MVP. He led the Packers to a second consecutive 13-3 season. He led the league with 48 passing touchdowns. He also added 4,299 passing yards.
