Green Bay Packers president and CEO Mark Murphy told ESPN’s Dianna Russini that there isn’t a deadline for a decision from quarterback Aaron Rodgers on his football future but both sides would prefer something is decided before the start of free agency.
The new league year begins Tuesday, March 15.
“There hasn’t been a deadline,” Murphy told Russini on Thursday night. “We both realize, the sooner the decision is made the better. Brian Gutekunst, the GM, has been in regular contact with him. I think Aaron has expressed that he doesn’t want to drag it on.”
Murphy confirmed he thinks now to the start of free agency is a reasonable window for a decision to be made.
