The buzz at the NFL scouting combine Tuesday wasn’t so much about this year’s unheralded crop of quarterback prospects.
Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said he still doesn't know if two-time reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers wants to return, retire or relocate. He expects an answer soon.
Colts GM Chris Ballard indicated he wasn't yet sold on former No. 2 overall draft pick Carson Wentz as the long-term answer in Indianapolis, and neither GM Terry Fontenot nor coach Arthur Smith would commit to Matt Ryan remaining the Falcons’ starting quarterback next season. No team in the NFL has had as much trouble under center over the last few seasons as the Denver Broncos, who have churned through 10 starting quarterbacks since Peyton Manning's retirement. The latest, Teddy Bridgewater, who went 7-7 last year, but was the best of the bunch.
Saying “there's no new updates” on Rodgers' situation, Gutekunst seemed to speculate the four-time MVP wasn't all-in on playing an 18th NFL season yet. “Ultimately, you’ve got to have a guy you believe in,” Ballard said. “I’m not saying we don’t, but in the long term is that the best answer for us? We’re not there yet, I’m not there yet.”
