This is a moot point. Rodgers doesn't have an out after this year. That's an out for the team. I agree the smart play for a star quarterback is to leave 'cause otherwise your organization gets Favre'd, Manning'd or I guess Rodgers'd, where the team is so consistently competitive that they bleed good players to everyone else.
everything i've seen says the out is his. please post a site that says something to the contrary.Originally Posted by call_me_ishmael
If you google this you won't find anything that says AR can opt out.
Check this out Pugger:

He signed a Five Year Contract in 2013 so that this is the last of those 5 years, or 2013-17.

HOFer
that means the team can cut him after this year and there would be zero cap penalty
he still has 2 years left after this year
however, coward and lebatard were both saying he should demand to be traded this offseason, not just opt out and sign with another team
