Today on Straight Outta Vegas with RJ Bell, RJ and AJ Hoffman react to the monumental contract extension reached between the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers. The guys break down the numbers behind the deal, the potential ramifications for Green Bay in the future, and the historic leverage Rodgers now holds in the league.
RJ Bell: "For Aaron Rodgers, this was like some kind of game in which he had the cheat code, so let's give the guy credit. He's turned it around where he has $100 million in dead-cap money in the two years after this next season, so years two and three. He could retire and give Green Bay a $100 million dollar crack in the head, or they do everything he wants, at all times, with a smile... I think Aaron Rodgers has more leverage right now than any other player in NFL history."
