Aaron Rodgers is one of the NFL's golden boys: Talented, handsome, and the kind of guy you
can bring home to momma.
But word through the grapevine is there may be a lot more to the quarterback than meets
the eye...and he's keeping something of a double life on the down-low.
Overinflategate
Tom Brady's infamous “deflategate” drove the NFL nuts for more than a year, but the
Patriots may not have been the only team to use air to their advantage.
In January 2015, CBS Sports’ Phil Simms said that Aaron Rodgers told him something
interesting before a game.
"But he said something that was unique: 'I like to push the limit to how much air we
can put in the football, even go over what they allow you to do, and see if the officials
take air out of it.'"
Whether or not the tactic had an effect on any Green Bay Packers' victories, it's still
a pretty sketchy move.
Love Thy Brother
Aaron’s brother Jordan won a season of The Bachelorette, but Aaron wasn't too thrilled
about it, since Jordan publicly described his family's relationship with Aaron as "complicated."
Jordan's hometown visit featured some clear tension whenever Aaron's name came up at home.
"Sitting down at that table there's two empty seats and I know that they all probably wish
Aaron was sitting in one of them."
Aaron is also noticeably absent from photos on the family’s Instagram accounts.
Aaron went on to tell Sports Illustrated:
"I haven't seen the show, to be honest with you, um, so it hasn't really affected me a
whole lot.
As far as those kinda things go, uh, I've always found that it's a little inappropriate
ya know to talk publicly about, about some family matters.
So I'm just, I'm not going to speak on those things, but uh, I wish him will in the competition."
Jordan, however, has a vague theory on why Aaron doesn't speak to him, saying, "He doesn't
approve of my lifestyle."
More on that later.
His Family Hates Olivia Munn
Aaron Rodgers' conservative family reportedly aren't fans of his girlfriend, Olivia Munn,
so the Rodgers clan and Munn are never spotted at the same games.
Fox Sports reported that the final straw for his folks came when Munn appeared on Bravo's
Watch What Happens Live and squawked in detail about her and Aaron’s sex life.
This irked the conservative Rodgers family...who still somehow had no problem with Jordan’s
behavior on The Bachelorette.
Munn is reportedly also pals with Jordan Rodgers' ex, Brittany Farrar, who trash-talked Jordan
publicly on Instagram.
During a date with Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher, he mentioned his pretty, blond ex.
"I was focused on one thing in my life: being the best football player I could be, and when
I wasn't, that was tough, and I took it out on people.
So she was along for the rollercoaster of when I was at my best and when I was at my
worst.
I'll be the first one to admit that that was awful, and I wasn't the best person all the
time."
Farrar's account of the split was much different.
After the episode aired, the stunner wrote, "Riding the bench doesn't get in the way of
a relationship, but cheating does."
In The Closet?
Questions about Rodgers’ sexuality almost broke the internet in December 2013.
A source told the now-defunct website The Fame Driven that Rodgers was actually in a
relationship with his roommate and personal assistant, Kevin Lanflisi, citing some highly
suggestive tweets from Lanflisi.
Obviously, there'd be nothing wrong if their alleged relationship were real.
But if the rumors are true, then Rodgers may be stringing along lady after lady, to craft
a public image, which simply isn't fair to them.
Religious Conflict
What might be further complicating Rodgers' relationship with his family is their conservative
Christian background, and how he might well be living in conflict with that.
Brother Jordan, a former quarterback at Vanderbilt University, was reportedly a member of the
Fellowship of Christian Athletes, an organization that's opposed to homosexuality.
If Aaron does disagree with his family members' views, it's no wonder why he may be keeping
his distance from them.
