Aaron Rodgers is clearly frustrated with the Green Bay Packers’ organization, so much so that he skipped organized team activities earlier this spring.

OTAs are voluntary, though, so skipping them doesn’t mean much. If Rodgers had skipped OTAs and then reported for mandatory minicamp, trade buzz surrounding the quarterback likely would have died down.

Instead, Rodgers opted to not report for minicamp, presumably a sign that his deserve to leave Green Bay is serious. Rodgers could be fined for missing mandatory practices, but the Packers might waive those fines in an effort to appease their QB and mend a fractured relationship.

With Rodgers absent, Jordan Love is taking first-team QB reps for Green Bay with Blake Bortles and Kurt Benkert serving as the backups. The Packers also brought in free agent QB Jake Dolegala on a tryout basis.

If Rodgers wants to force the Packers’ hand and improve his chances of getting traded, the next logical step would be skipping training camp, which begins in late July. Green Bay appears willing to wait Rodgers out with hopes of the QB possibly changing his mind and eventually returning to the team.

If Rodgers wins his staredown with the team and the Packers agree to trade him, the Denver Broncos are expected to be among the quarterback’s suitors in a potential trade market.
