Nathaniel Hackett and his coaching staff have deep ties to the 38-year-old quarterback and Paton’s done a good job maintaining significant cap flexibility. The Broncos can afford to sign Aaron Rodgers to a record breaking deal without gutting the roster.

Aaron Rodgers is “truly torn” between Packers and Broncos

If Aaron were to tell anyone close to the media, it'd be Pat. And he knows Pat can't keep a secret so he doesn't say shit to him lol

Purely a guess....

My first thought reading it was DB69 had told Silver directly but to keep it on the QT. His reaction would be consistent with "dude..c'mon,...i just told you to STFU"

Go Packers!!!!

If there's an exception, it'd be him.

Compared to guys like Cowherd, Smith, Bayless etc, Silver had a means of direct, personal access to Rodgers before his pro career ever began. And like I said, Silver has always been staunchly Rodgers during his time in the NFL. It could be improbable but I wouldn't rule it out as impossible.

My point was that Silver was always been in a better position to cultivate a relationship early on in Rodgers career (collegiate and pro) compared to other media personalities. Silver penned dozens of Sports Illustrated cover stories and been a columnist in NFL circles for a long time. You don't get to that position without cultivating relationships with players on and off the record (which is probably why Bakh was so pissed, he probably wasn't expecting something like that out of Silver).

If there's an exception to Rodgers not liking traditional media personalities, Silver would be the one because he's been in Rodgers corner the longest and Rodgers is big on that sort of thing as we've seen.
