Yet another breaking news story about a Packer quarterback today. This in from ESPN's Adam Schefter:
Packers and Aaron Rodgers are expected to complete their record-breaking extension by the end of the weekend, source tells ESPN. But the deal is expected to now be finalized and in place before the start of the regular season, per source.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter)

Aaron Rodgers’ new deal is expected to be the largest in NFL history and will tie him to Green Bay for well beyond the two years on his contract and quite likely for the remainder of his career.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter)

Former Packers WR turned NFL network correspondent has the initial numbers:

BREAKING The Packers and 2-Time MVP QB have agreed to terms on a 4-year extension worth $33.5 million in new money...plus incentives per year...He gets over $100 million in guarantees.
— James Jones (@89JonesNTAF)

Rejoice Packer fans; it looks like QB1 is here to stay.

It makes sense that they needed to get rid of the Hundley contact in order to have enough room under the cap. 😁

Why even have guys like Russ Ball who sign really good contracts, if you’re just gonna renegotiate anyway, as soon as that contract is favorable to the team?

Props to aaron tho, now can we get to work on winning the SB?

I'm glad we have Rodgers locked up for the next six years but this kind of insane crazy money is difficult for an old man like me to stomach.
I hope this doesn't handcuff the Packers player acquisition decisions in the years to come.

Mucky Tundra (10h) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (10h) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (12h) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (13h) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (14h) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (14h) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (14h) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (14h) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (14h) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (14h) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (14h) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Sometimes it's snappy, like now.

beast (23-Jul) : Also the thanks/heart takes FOREVER to load, and posting in the shout box takes three times FOREVER!

beast (23-Jul) : Thanks for saying something, I thought it was slow, but assumed it was on my end

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Yeah, I noticed that too. Is it slow for PackerPeople.com too?

wpr (23-Jul) : I don't know what you IT guys call it but the page loading is very slow for me today.
