Fantasy Impact

Rodgers ended as the QB5 in PPR formats for Week 2, playing a nearly flawless game and finishing with a 145.6 quarterback rating. After a rough start to the season against the Saints, Rodgers and head coach Matt LaFleur owned the second half of Monday's game to coast to a decisive victory over the Lions. Rodgers will travel to San Francisco to face off against Jimmy Garoppolo and the 49ers on Sunday Night Football in Week 3.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 15 of 28 passes for 133 yards and two interceptions during Sunday's 38-3 blowout loss to the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Impact

Rodgers had an awful 2021 debut on the road against the Saints, finishing with a 13.6 QBR after throwing two interceptions and failing to find the end zone. The Saints defense was stingy throughout the Week 1 blowout despite only sacking Rodgers once, as he was unable to lean on Davante Adams as he did during his 2020 MVP campaign. Fantasy managers should avoid panicking after one bad performance, especially with Rodgers going up against the Detroit Lions defense in Week 2.

Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers will "most likely" not play in the preseason, according to HC Matt LaFleur, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Fantasy Impact

There's no need for Rodgers to play in the preseason. He's experienced in the offense and has established rapport with all of his WR's. Rodgers should be in MVP conversation again this season and will remain one of the premier fantasy football QBs in the game.

Jay Glazer reports that the Green Bay Packers have agreed to trade Aaron Rodgers if he still wants out after the 2021 season.

Fantasy Impact

Just over a week after Ian Rapoport reported that Rodgers and the Packers had agreed to terms on their reworked deal, Glazer reports one of the details in that deal. Rodgers has the option to be traded after this coming season, if he still wants out. This gives the Packers about six months to prove to the reigning MVP that they will do what’s right by him and if not, he could be as good as gone. It’s hard to imagine this not lingering in the minds of the front office throughout the season. However, they seem to have turned a new leaf by bringing back Randall Cobb after Rodgers request. For 2021 he’s still a top-10 QB in fantasy leagues, but with the possibility of a trade dynasty managers should be cautious.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that Packers QB Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have agreed to terms on their reworked deal.
