Aaron Rodgers may continue to "own" divisional rival the Chicago Bears.
The NFL's Green Bay Packers reportedly have agreed with the quarterback on a four-year extension worth $200 million, including $153 million in guaranteed money, NFL.com noted.
Rodgers, however, has disputed the amount.
Pat McAfee, of The Pat McAfee Show, first reported Rodgers' deal. Rodgers later tweeted that he "will be playing for the Packers" this upcoming season and is "very excited to be back."
News of the deal ended speculation about a potential Rodgers pairing with the Denver Broncos, who turned around within hours of Rodgers' decision to acquire Russell Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks in a blockbuster trade.
