In a jaw-dropping revelation, the author of Aaron Rodgers’ biography has exposed an escalating feud between the star quarterback and his former team, the Green Bay Packers. This explosive new information suggests that Rodgers may be harboring deep-seated grievances that could potentially lead to a dramatic and unexpected comeback—or a full-blown public showdown.
It has been over a year since the controversial split between the Green Bay Packers and future Hall of Famer quarterback Aaron Rodgers. But even after all that time, Ian O’Connor, who wrote a biography about Rodgers, thinks that the signal-caller still has beef with the Packers.
“Yes. I think the greats, they feel slighted, and they never forget it,” O’Connor said when asked by Colin Cowherd if Rodgers still resents Green Bay (h/t Sportskeeda).
“And Aaron holds a grudge like he holds the football, with a very firm grip. He never lets go. So there’s no question. If you asked Aaron which team he’d like to face in the Super Bowl as a member of the New York Jets, it’s the Green Bay Packers— I think the Packers wanted to fire him, and I think he knows that, and I think he’ll never forget it. This is a guy who, out of high school, didn’t have a single scholarship offer. He gets humiliated at the draft.
He got 1310 on his SATs. He’s a great quarterback, and he’s got to go to the local community college. Those things add up to that gigantic chip on his shoulder that still has not gone away.”
