Rodgers Confirms He’s Resigned With Packers but Denies Record-Setting Pay

Rodgers denied reports that he signed a deal that would make him the highest paid NFL player in history.

Aaron Rodgers is staying with the Green Bay Packers, though he said the terms of his deal are still to be determined. “YES I will be playing with the @packers next year,” Rodgers wrote on Twitter Tuesday. “However, reports about me signing a contract are inaccurate, as are the supposed terms of the contract I ‘signed.’” Sports analyst Pat McAfee confirmed on Tuesday that Rodgers would return to the Packers for an 18th season, though McAfee blasted a report by NFL.com that said Rodgers would be the highest-paid NFL player in history. NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport initially reported that Rodgers signed a four-year, $200 million extension deal, which included $153 million in guaranteed money. “The contract has not been done,” McAfee countered. “There is no deal, and in the deal he’s getting projected, people are getting projected.”
