Oddsmakers: Rodgers Will Return to Packers Late in Training Camp
GREEN BAY, Wis. – Will Aaron Rodgers return to the Green Bay Packers? Yes, oddsmakers say, but not without an additional month of consternation.
According to Sports Betting Dime, the Packers are the favorite to have the MVP’s services for the upcoming season. Green Bay is +125, followed by the Denver Broncos at +250, Las Vegas Raiders at +700 and the field at +585.
The over/under on Rodgers’ reporting to Packers training camp is Aug. 28. That’s the date of Green Bay’s preseason finale; Rodgers, of course, is no fan of preseason football.
The odds Rodgers chooses to sit out the season rather than return to Green Bay are +250.
“The oddsmakers at Sports Betting Dime list the Bronocs at +8500 with Drew Lock or Teddy Bridgewater to win the Super Bowl,” according to SBD. “But putting Rodgers behind center improves their Super Bowl odds to +1400 and their over/under win total jumps from 7.5 to 10. Similarly, the Raiders Championship odds go from +7000 with David Carr to +1300 with Rodgers. He is also worth 2.5 wins to their over/under win total.
“The Packers are the team most impacted by Rodgers’ decision, as their current over/under win total of 10.5 and +1600 Super Bowl odds plummet to 6.5 wins and +12500 with Jordan Love.”
