Adams wants to input on the next QB
Rodgers missed Davante this season

Aaron Rodgers (on missing Davante)
I feel like obviously losing Davante was a big deal. We didn’t fill that void. Nobody can. He’s super-human. He’s phenomenal. There was hope in certain things that were going to fill that void. Ultimately, that just didn’t happen.

Aaron Rodgers (on missing Davante)
The things we were able to do, I think, may have been taken for granted at times, because we were able to create so many different things in the moment over the years and, especially, the last couple of years, because not much changed other than his absence from the lineup.

Aaron Rodgers Trade rumors
Adam Schefter: Rodgers & Packers know a trade “is a very real scenario this offseason."
Pat McAfee: Trade is possible, but very costly
Rapsheet: the way his contract is structured, a trade is possible

Ian Rapoport (on Rodgers Trade)
Because of the way his contract is structured, a trade is possible. You could do it financially. You could come up with compensation. I think Green Bay likes what they have in Jordan Love. So, if they got the right package, I think they could do a deal – it would be $60 million for one season, somebody would pay him. That is what he’s on the books for, cash, next year.

Aaron Rodgers contract if traded via Over The Cap
For the team acquiring Rodgers they would be on the hook for the salary for the year. The cap charge would be $59,515,000 if they do not exercise his option and $15.79 million if they were to exercise the option. Rodgers has an injury guarantee of $49.25 million for 2024 but that does not become fully guaranteed until 5 days after the 2023 Super Bowl.

Aaron Rodgers contract if traded via Over The Cap
If Rodgers was cut after 2023 it would cost the team $43.725 million on the 2024 cap. If he retired they could split that as $14.575 million in 2024 and $29.15 million in 2025 using a similar June 2nd date as mentioned above in the retirement option.
