Aaron Rodgers reportedly wants Packers to fire Brian Gutekunst

Aaron Rodgers reportedly wants the Green Bay Packers to get rid of Brian Gutekunst or else.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is so mad at the organization that he reportedly wants general manager Brian Gutekunst to be fired.

The rift between Rodgers and the Packers organization is growing by the day. News of him wanting out by way of trade first came to light hours before the start of the 2021 NFL Draft. In the last 10 years, including on Thursday night, the Packers have drafted nine defensive players in the first round. The lone offensive player they picked was Rodgers’ successor last year in Jordan Love.

Rodgers may be looking at all the options, but does not want to work with Gutekunst any more.

Man, this inevitable divorce is getting nastier by the day. Green Bay has long taken advantage of Rodgers’ ability to elevate the talent around him. While the Packers have been a perennial playoff team throughout much of his tenure at quarterback, they have not been to a Super Bowl in over a decade, losing in each of the last four NFC Championship games they have played, including 2020.

Rodgers’ camp allegedly demanding Gutekunst be fired is incredibly petty, but it is not like he has a ton of high-quality years left in the tank. The Packers have utterly wasted Rodgers’ prime, and he either wants out or have things drastically change within the organization. Because the Packers do not have an owner in the general sense, you can see how this type of dysfunction manifests.

Tensions are undoubtedly high between Rodgers and the rest of the Packers organization.
