On Friday, Packers coach Mike McCarthy repeatedly said called Sunday's unavailability of quarterback Aaron Rodgers an "organizational decision.' McCarthy could have used a couple of more forceful terms: "Extraordinary risk.' According to Chris Mortensen and Rob Demovsky of ESPN, a recent scan of Rodgers' fractured collarbone showed "extraordinary risk' to the quarterback, if he were...

More significantly:

According to Chris Mortensen and Rob Demovsky of ESPN, a recent scan of Rodgers’ fractured collarbone showed “extraordinary risk” to the quarterback, if he were to play.

DEMOVSKY

Even though the Green Bay Packers waited until Friday to rule out Aaron Rodgers for the seventh straight game, the star quarterback apparently wasn't as close to coming back as it may have appeared.

Rodgers' fractured left collarbone still showed "extraordinary risk" if he returned to the field on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told ESPN.

Aaron Rodgers doesn't need to worry about people thinking he's a wimp. Everybody knows, it is that "organizational" asshole who vetoed his chance to play.

Are there actually some FOOLS in here who prefer to believe a couple of God damned media talking heads over McCarthy and Rodgers? Pathetic, just pathetic.

Run D, yes. But we've got a QB.

One bad hit, and he could lose not just this
season but could cost him next year.
Do I want him to play? Yes! But not if it
will destroy his future with the Packers.

dfosterf (7h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (7h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (7h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (12h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (14h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (16h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (16h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (16h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (17h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (18h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
