LaFleur: 'Hopefully' Rodgers will report for minicamp

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur is unsure if Aaron Rodgers will be in attendance when mandatory veteran minicamp begins next week.

"It's important that we have all our guys, and certainly we'd love him to be here. Hopefully, we'll see him Tuesday," LaFleur said Wednesday, according to Olivia Reiner of Packers News.

Rodgers skipped the entirety of Green Bay's voluntary offseason program. While organized team activities aren't mandatory, Rodgers has participated in them in years past.

But with the reigning NFL MVP reportedly seeking an exit from the Packers due to a poor relationship with the team's front office, he skipped the voluntary workouts and forfeited a $500,000 bonus.

Rodgers can be fined up to $93,085 for missing all three days of minicamp, per league rules.

Five of Green Bay's veteran receivers, including Davante Adams, Allen Lazard, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Equanimeous St. Brown, and Devin Funchess, also didn't participate in OTAs.

Rodgers broke his silence about his issues with the Packers in late May, saying they didn't stem from the team selecting quarterback Jordan Love in the first round of last year's draft.

"I love the coaching staff, love my teammates, love the fan base in Green Bay. Incredible 16 years," Rodgers said. "It's just kind of about a philosophy and maybe forgetting that it is about the people that make the thing go. It's about character, it's about culture, it's about doing things the right way."

Green Bay general manager Brian Gutekunst is reportedly insisting he won't trade the veteran passer. However, Rodgers apparently won't return to the NFC North club unless Gutekunst is fired.
