Aaron Charles Rodgers (born December 2, 1983) is an American professional football quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the California Golden Bears. He set school records for the lowest single-season and career interception rates. The Green Bay Packers then selected him in the first round of the 2005 NFL draft. Many consider him one of the greatest quarterbacks ever.

Rodgers was a backup to Brett Favre for three years. In 2008, he became the Packers' starting quarterback. He led them to a Super Bowl XLV victory in the 2010 season. He also won the Super Bowl MVP award. Rodgers was named Associated Press Athlete of the Year in 2011. He won the league MVP award four times (2011, 2014, 2020, and 2021). He is one of only five players to win NFL MVP in two seasons in a row.

Rodgers holds several NFL records. He has the best career passer rating in NFL history. He also has the best touchdown-to-interception ratio. He holds the lowest career interception percentage. His 2011 season passer rating of 122.5 is the highest ever in a single season. In 2023, Rodgers was traded to the New York Jets. He played two seasons there before signing with the Steelers in 2025.

Early Life and High School Football

Aaron Rodgers was born on December 2, 1983, in Chico, California. His father, Edward Wesley Rodgers, was a chiropractor and played football in college. Aaron's family moved several times during his childhood. They lived in Ukiah, California, and Beaverton, Oregon.

The Rodgers family returned to Chico in 1997. Aaron attended Pleasant Valley High School. He played quarterback for two years. He gained 4,421 passing yards during his high school career. He set school records for six touchdowns in one game. He also had 440 all-purpose yards in a single game. In 2001, he set a school record with 2,466 total yards in one season. He graduated in 2002 with good grades.

College Football Career

Despite his strong high school performance, Rodgers did not get many offers from top college football programs. He was smaller than many other players at the time. He wanted to play for Florida State but was not accepted. He even thought about quitting football to play baseball.

He then decided to play football at Butte College in Oroville, California. This was a junior college.

Playing at Butte College

2002 Season Success

In his first year at Butte, Rodgers threw 26 touchdowns. He led his team to a 10–1 record. They won the NorCal Conference championship. The team was ranked No. 2 nationally.

The head coach for the California Golden Bears, Jeff Tedford, noticed Rodgers. Tedford was surprised that no other big colleges had recruited him. Because Rodgers had good grades, he could transfer to the University of California, Berkeley after just one year at junior college.

Playing at California University

Professional Football Career

Joining the NFL: 2005 Draft

Rodgers was expected to be picked early in the 2005 NFL draft. Many scouts were impressed by his college performance. However, the San Francisco 49ers, his favorite team, chose another quarterback. Rodgers then fell to the 24th pick, where the Green Bay Packers selected him. This was a big surprise on draft day.

Green Bay Packers Years

Learning as a Backup: 2005–2007

Rodgers spent his first three NFL seasons as a backup to legendary quarterback Brett Favre. He signed a five-year contract in August 2005. He saw very little playing time during these years.

In 2006, Rodgers broke his left foot while playing against the New England Patriots. This injury ended his season early. Favre decided to stay with the Packers for the 2007 season, delaying Rodgers' chance to start. Rodgers did get to play more in a game against the Dallas Cowboys in 2007 when Favre was injured. He completed 18 passes for 201 yards and threw his first touchdown pass.

Becoming the Starter: 2008

When Brett Favre retired in March 2008, Rodgers became the Packers' starting quarterback. Even though Favre later decided to return, he was traded to the New York Jets. This officially made Rodgers the starter.

Rodgers quickly showed he was a top quarterback. In his first season as a starter, he passed for 4,038 yards. He also threw 28 touchdowns and only 13 interceptions. The Packers beat the Minnesota Vikings 24–19 in Rodgers' first start. This was the first time since 1992 that someone other than Favre started at quarterback for the Packers. Rodgers was named the FedEx Air award winner in his second NFL start. He passed for 328 yards and three touchdowns against the Lions.

On October 31, 2008, Rodgers signed a six-year contract extension. The Packers finished the season with a 6–10 record and missed the playoffs.

2009 Season: First Playoff Appearance

Rodgers led the Packers to a comeback win in the first game of the 2009 season. He threw a 50-yard touchdown pass to Greg Jennings with about a minute left. This helped them beat the Chicago Bears 21–15.

He was named NFC Offensive Player of the Month for October 2009. He threw for 988 yards and completed 74.5% of his passes. The Packers finished the season with an 11–5 record. They earned a wild card playoff spot.

Rodgers became the first quarterback in NFL history to throw for over 4,000 yards in his first two years as a starter. He finished fourth in the league in passing yards (4,434) and touchdown passes (30).

In the playoffs, the Packers played the Arizona Cardinals. Rodgers threw for 423 yards and four touchdowns. This was the most passing yards by any quarterback in their first playoff game. Despite his efforts, the Packers lost 51–45 in overtime. This was the highest-scoring playoff game in NFL history. Rodgers was chosen for his first Pro Bowl.

2010 Season: Super Bowl XLV Champions

In 2010, Rodgers led the Packers to a 2–0 start. However, they then lost three of their next four games. Rodgers had thrown nine interceptions by midseason. But his play improved greatly for the rest of the season. He threw 16 touchdowns and only two interceptions.

In Week 13, Rodgers had 298 passing yards and three touchdowns against the San Francisco 49ers. He earned his first NFC Offensive Player of the Week award. He missed a game in Week 15 due to a concussion.

The Packers had to win their last two games to make the playoffs. Rodgers led them to victories, including a 404-yard, four-touchdown game against the New York Giants. He was named the FedEx Air NFL Player of the Year for 2010.

The Packers entered the playoffs as the No. 6 seed. They defeated the Eagles and then blew out the top-seeded Atlanta Falcons 48–21. Rodgers completed 31 of 36 passes for 366 yards and four touchdowns. He set an NFL record for most touchdowns in three consecutive playoff games. The Packers then beat the Chicago Bears 21–14 in the NFC Championship.

The Packers went on to win Super Bowl XLV against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rodgers completed 24 of 39 passes for 304 yards and three touchdowns. He was named Super Bowl MVP. This was his only Super Bowl win with the Packers. He became one of only four quarterbacks to throw for over 300 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions in a Super Bowl.

2011 Season: First MVP Award

The 2011 season was amazing for Rodgers. He led the Packers to a 13–0 start. This tied the NFC record for most wins to start a season. They were upset by the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 15, ending their 19-game winning streak.

Rodgers finished the season with 4,643 passing yards, 45 touchdown passes, and only six interceptions. His passer rating was 122.5, which is the highest single-season passer rating in NFL history. He set new franchise records for passing yards, touchdown passes, and passer rating. He also led the league in touchdown-to-interception ratio.

He won the NFL MVP award, receiving 48 out of 50 votes. The Packers finished the regular season with a 15–1 record. However, they were upset by the New York Giants in the Divisional Round. Rodgers was named to the Pro Bowl and was a First-team All-Pro. His fellow players voted him the best player in the league.

In Week 9, Rodgers fractured his left clavicle (collarbone) after being sacked. He missed several weeks due to the injury. The Packers struggled without him.

Rodgers returned for the final game of the season against the Chicago Bears. He threw for 318 yards and two touchdowns. With less than a minute left, he threw a 48-yard game-winning touchdown pass to Randall Cobb. This win clinched the NFC North title for the Packers. They lost to the 49ers again in the Wild Card Round.

2014 Season: Second MVP Award

2015 Season: "Miracle in Motown"

Rodgers had a slightly less productive year in 2015 compared to his MVP seasons. He threw for 3,821 yards and 31 touchdowns. The absence of injured wide receiver Jordy Nelson was a factor.

In Week 3, he threw five touchdowns against the Chiefs. On December 3, 2015, Rodgers threw a famous Hail Mary pass against the Lions. The pass was caught by Richard Rodgers for 61 yards as time expired. This play, known as "The Miracle in Motown," won the game 27–23.

Rodgers was named to his fifth Pro Bowl.

2016 Season: "Run the Table"

Rodgers started the 2016 season with some struggles. After a Week 11 loss, the Packers were 4–6. Rodgers famously said, "I feel like we can run the table." This meant winning all their remaining games. The Packers did exactly that, winning six straight games to finish the season.

In Week 14, Rodgers had a 150.8 passer rating against the Seahawks. This was the best rating against their defense since 2010. He was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week. Rodgers was selected to his sixth Pro Bowl.
