Aaron Rodgers Has A Funny Story About The Night The Packers Drafted Jordan Love And It Ends With A Big Glass Of Tequila

Aaron Rodgers has had quite the 2020 after his reported breakup with Danica Patrick and canoodling with Shailene Woodley. But he’s going to have to face one new reality as NFL training camps (hopefully) start up in the coming weeks. Rodgers’ team, the Packers, drafted his possible replacement in Utah State’s Jordan Love. Rodgers revealed on The Ringer’s podcast 10 Questions with Kyle Brandt how that night that could have been a little dramatic ended up for him:

Gotta respect the “four finger,” aka four-ounce pour of tequila by Aaron Rodgers. That’s the kind of pour of a man who has to face some kind of existential dread even though he’s as entrenched as any quarterback in the league. The Packers could have gotten him real help like the guys he mentioned at wide receiver, a Justin Jefferson or Brandon Aiyuk. And instead, the team may not have put a knife in his back … but they certainly brought that potential knife into the quarterback room. In some ways, that’s about as relatable as Aaron Rodgers has ever been. He’s a legend among legends in one of the most legendary franchises in the league, and he’s still sweating out his job like the rest of us.

But Aaron Rodgers seems pretty zen around the whole thing, even if he does sound a bit resigned to the idea that his Packers run could come to an end in the next few years. It’ll certainly give this year a bit of a unique edge for Aaron Rodgers, assuming games get off the ground. And if nothing else, it seems like he’s not lacking for the love of a good woman to help keep him afloat. That and the tequila can help a bunch.

Love this cat’s vibe. He should be the new Dos Equis guy if we’re being honest.
