Share the latest NFL news from around the league here.
Can't see Rodgers going for that.

Nix got hurt late, so this is insurance IMO.

But Aaron Rodgers won't agree to being insurance. Maybe we find out soon that there's zero chance of Nix being able to play a snap this year. Then I could possibly see it. But signing Rodgers would absolutely end Bo's season, regardless of if he ends up fully healthy by week 1.
 
Yes, please ruin a year of Bronco's window. Please make this signing. Please. God I absolutely LOVE the tear Rodgers has been on, damning the past two teams he has been on to mediocrity like quitting with minutes left in a playoff game. I almost promise you Rodgers would've ****ed up like, 6 of their "comeback" wins.
 
interesting rumor...

 
So Rogers made $13.65m with the Steelers last year with up to $19.5m through incentives. My guess is they are offering him close to the same. Denver has $18m-$19m in cap space. Denver has no first round pick and 7 picks in the draft. They will need about $6m to sign their draft class. So its fiscally possible it could happen, but is that fiscally responsible? Its throwing away $14+m for a few wins when your defense is elite and has a change to win those games anyway with average QB play. Their strength of schedule falls in the middle of the league. They don't need a 1st round bye to compete in the playoffs with that defense.

So I say that this is fake news. The Floria made it up because they he was bored and decided this would be a cool way to get clicks. The language of the article shows it. "There’s talk of the Broncos possibly bringing Rodgers in for a visit." Ya Florio, you invented the talk. "If — and for now it’s a big if — Rodgers ends up in Denver..." Ya, you made it up.

Then there is the Aaron ego. You really think he is playing a few games and then happily give the kid the reigns? Hahahahaha Ahahahahahahaha Hahahahahaha Ahahahahahahaha.

 
IF it is true, then yeah, something not good is going on with Nix's recovery. Because who here can imagine Rodgers settling for a backup job?

To be fair, the Jete were damned long before Rodgers got there.

At this juncture, how many options does Rodgers really have?

It's probably time to have a serious discussion about who is going to be the new A-Hole to replace Rodgers? Traditions are important.

Re-sign with Pittsburgh or retire. He doesn't strike me as someone so desperate to stay in the show that he'll sign up to play for possibly a month or so, then retire at season's end.
 
Rodgers isn't going anywhere that he isn't guaranteed the starting role. You don't go from being one of the best QBs of all time to a back up. Especially someone who has a diva personality like Rodgers.

The Steelers are pretty much banking on Rodgers being back next season. So if Payton cannot guarantee him the starting role, then Rodgers will just go back to the Steelers.

Rodgers isn't Russell Wilson who can go from "The guy" to holding a clipboard.
 
That's the dumbest thing I ever heard UNLESS Bonix is so badly injured that he is going to miss the entire season - and there haven't been any reports even remotely suggesting that.

I can understand bringing in a capable backup (like KC did with Fields) if you need him for a couple September starts but bringing in Rodgers would be a nightmare.

@RobertWeathers have discussed it, and we prefer to let these things happen organically. Might just roll out Lily just because, just to keep folks honest. Don't have a plan at this time.

100%.
There is zero chance, zero that Rodgers is signing anywhere where he isn't the unquestioned starter.
