Former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings said during an appearance on Bleacher Report's The Lefkoe Show he still wants an opportunity to speak privately with Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers about their relationship following his unceremonious exit from the organization in 2013.

"For me, all I want (is five minutes to talk to him). ... I don't want it for TV, I don't want it for those reasons," Jennings told B/R's Adam Lefkoe (at 45:08). " ... I know if I get him in a room, he knows me well enough to where he's going to say 'Greg, why'd you...' and I would tell him, 'Dude, that hurt!' ... I wanted to tell you, I reached out to you, I came to Green Bay, you didn't even acknowledge me."

The tension stems from an interaction during a 2012 game against the San Francisco 49ers. While Jennings was having a conversation with Niners cornerback Carlos Rogers about being in a contract year, the receiver said Rodgers chirped in with, "You guys should get him at the end of the year."

"I don't think he realizes what he said and the impact that it had," Jennings told B/R's Tyler Dunne in April. "Had the shoe been on the other foot and I said, 'Hey, man, I should come and play with your quarterback,' he would've been so offended by that. But when it comes out of his mouth—and we all know there's truth behind jokes—for him to say that and just act as though everything was the same? It just wasn't."

The two-time Pro Bowl wideout said he's made several attempts to set up a meeting with Rodgers to no avail. He went on to tell a story to Lefkoe about trying to initiate a conversation after seeing his former teammate at a Milwaukee Bucks playoff game earlier this year.

"What are you doing here?" Rodgers responded, according to Jennings. "You need to stop talking about me."

After Jennings said he wanted to talk, the Packers QB, who also owns an ownership share in the Bucks, told him "my number hasn't changed."

The retired receiver noted he's still waiting to hear back from Rodgers and stated he wants that one-on-one conversation to clear the air with the two-time NFL MVP because he knows "who he is and how he is."

Meanwhile, Jennings said he still feels Rodgers is the greatest quarterback he's ever seen and doesn't want the rift to create unnecessary labels.

"I'm not an Aaron Rodgers hater," he told Lefkoe.

Green Bay selected Rodgers in the first round of the 2005 draft and Jennings in the second round of the 2006 draft. They worked in tandem for five seasons after Rodgers took over the starting job from Brett Favre in 2008.

The receiver went on to play for the Minnesota Vikings and Miami Dolphins before retiring in 2016.
