The Facts:
As the opening day of the frenzy came to a close, two NFL sources said Jennings could very well wind up right back where he began, in Green Bay. According to one source, the Packers extended an offer to Jennings “a while ago” that averaged roughly $10 million per year, and the other source said Jennings’ agent, Eugene Parker, had been in discussions with the Packers about his possible return.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Minnesota Vikings were reportedly one team that had expressed an interest in Jennings, but Tom Pelissero of 1500ESPN.com in Minneapolis/St. Paul reported that the Vikings were not in fact actively pursuing Jennings, so it was unclear as of Tuesday night which teams were courting him. Pelissero said the Vikings were not interested at Jennings' asking price, which at the time was in the $11 million to $12 million per year range. The Green Bay Press-Gazette’s Rob Demovsky reported that, according to a source, if Jennings hadn’t signed with another team before midnight, the likelihood of his return to Green Bay would increase.
