At least publicly, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers continue to express optimism that the two sides will reach an agreement that will keep the quarterback with the franchise for the rest of his career.

On Thursday, Rodgers fielded more questions about his contract status, and he continued to toe the party line.
“I think [the Packers] talked about it enough that there’s an expectation something would have been done,” Rodgers said Thursday to the assembled media.
