:sick:
Rodgers, 38, had been on the books for a salary-cap charge of $46,144,156, but that figure has been reduced by about $18 million.

The reigning two-time league MVP will make $41.95 million this season, which is fully guaranteed in the form of a $40.8 million roster bonus (which will be treated as a signing bonus for salary-cap purposes) and a base salary of $1.15 million. His 2023 pay of $59.465 million also is guaranteed. In 2024, his $49.25 million is guaranteed only against injury at the time of signing.

If Rodgers plays only one season and then retires, gets released or is traded in 2023, the Packers would have to absorb at least $68 million in dead money (and up to $99.8 million if it occurred before June 1) -- another sign that the quarterback intends to play or has committed to playing at least two more seasons. In 2024, the dead money could be reduced to as low as $27.6 million.
 
he obviously deserves it, but a little surprised he retired

figured hed run it back 1 more year


This was the pickup that doesn't get discussed as much as some of their other moves, but it really helped them put everything else in place to build this team.

Happy he's hanging it up!!
