It's an interesting idea.

I'd have to hold off and wait how and see how the legal troubles panned out.

And then you factor in what, if anything, the league may do about him.

Personally I'd kick the tires on Rodgers.  He might be getting a little long in the tooth but he could likely get us by until we managed to draft his replacement somehow.

But if a team decides to terminate the contract you have no issue with that.

The team cannot do so unless the player gave them the option, in writing.

What leverage?

The whiny bitch "oh my feeling are hurt" variety?

Yeah, no can do...

Players get traded all the time by “leaking” they want out. Hell it just happened with Julio. They apparently offered Rodgers the richest QB contract for his “whining.” Now it looks like Adams isn’t going to sign a long term contract either, it’s becoming quite the ripple effect. If more players from Green Bay follow they are going to be in trouble soon. Like it or not they absolutely have some leverage, especially the star players.

I don't really envision a scenario where we are trading for him if there is question as to his status. We are not describing similar scenarios at all.

Good, I don't envision it either. Kinda have a nightmare about us doing it, but hopefully wiser heads in the front office will keep us out of this trouble.

Rodgers would retire before coming here.

The guy just gets off on people being forced to submit to authority. It's bizarre. 100% chance his hard drive is full of some really fuged up BDSM porn.

Complete horse-hockey and more virtue signaling please!   LOL. 

Contracts are a 2-way street and agreed to by both parties...

...if either side feels it's unfair they should decline to sign.  

Own it.  

This feels like an over simplified child-like view. This is completely discounting the aspect of power imbalance and implicit coercion.

Another Packer getting pissed. No wonder they had an urgent meeting with their shareholders. Seems odd though, because I’ve heard the players have no leverage….

Certainly seems that something is amiss in GB.

If a team terminates a contract, the player still gets paid.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
