After the Green Bay Packers failed to pull off a trade to improve their struggling offense, Aaron Rodgers understands the reality facing a team in the midst of a four-game losing streak.
“That just sent the message to us that we’ve got to play with the guys we’ve got and win with the guys we’ve got,” Rodgers said. “I think there’s still a lot of confidence in the guys in the locker room. I do feel like we need to get healthy.”
If Rodgers was disappointed that Brian Gutekunst didn’t land anyone before Tuesday’s trade deadline, he kept that to himself during his regular Wednesday session with reporters.
“Obviously, the compensation for whatever players we were going after, it just didn’t make sense,” Rodgers said. “So I trust Brian and we had some good conversations and I know we were in on some things and it obviously just didn’t pan out.”
