"If I were Aaron Rodgers, I would have walked off the field at the NFC Championship game, walked into the locker room, I would have shook my teammates hands, and I would have said 'goodbye.' And I never would have spoken to the Green Bay Packers again," Smith said.

For the most part, the media is on Rodgers' side with this one as he has consistently been a top-five quarterback, all while his front office has failed him at every turn. While the Packers are set on not trading him, it's looking like they might not have a choice.
