Aaron Rodgers is regarded by some as the most talented player to ever hold the most important job in American team sports — quarterback. He also stands among the most mysterious and polarizing figures in the modern-day national pastime that is pro football. From his controversial Covid stance to his methods of spiritual awakening to his estrangement from his family to his high-profile romances to his devastating Achilles injury a mere four plays into his New York Jets career, Rodgers has long dominated the NFL’s news cycle. At 39, in search of a challenge that would rejuvenate him, Rodgers divorced the iconic Green Bay Packers of Vince Lombardi fame for the Jets, who haven’t appeared in a Super Bowl since Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon. The trade made Rodgers the biggest story in the biggest league in the biggest market. By far. That story only got bigger when Rodgers shockingly went down on the night of 9/11, in front of a packed house that roared for him when he took the field carrying an American flag, and in front of the biggest Monday Night Football audience in ESPN history — peaking at more than 25 million viewers. As Rodgers launches his comeback and his bid to lead the Jets to a championship, four-time New York Times bestselling author Ian O’Connor uses hundreds of exclusive interviews to pull back the curtain and answer the most penetrating questions about Rodgers, perhaps the country’s most famous athlete who hasn’t had a defining biography written about him. Just like he did in his previous works on Bill Belichick, Mike Krzyzewski, Derek Jeter, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus, O’Connor will reveal all sides of an all-time great and deliver a portrait of a complex man and four-time NFL MVP that will forever shape the way football fans view him.
