"Feel bad for his wife" - NFL fans react as Aaron Rodgers confirms being married days after signing with Steelers

Aaron Rodgers is now officially married! He shared the news at a press conference on June 10, 2025, revealing that he got married “a couple months ago”. But he didn’t divulge any other details.

Once the news surfaced on X, NFL fans had a field day with it.

"He got married in the darkness," wrote one fan.

The humor was on point with this response. It was a reference to Aaron Rodgers completing his darkness retreat at Sky Cave Retreats in Oregon on February 23, 2025. The retreat lasted four days, during which Rodgers stayed in total darkness.

The veteran QB later described it as “one of the most profound experiences” of his life.

Another fan wrote,

"I feel bad for his wife. Rodgers actively avoids spending time with his kids so much that he makes Elon (Musk) look like a stay at home dad."

A third fan commented,

"Plot twist: he married himself."

Another fan gave his opinion, writing:

"The tomfoolery is already beginning."

More NFL fans joined the bandwagon.

The news came just days after Rodgers signed a new contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The deal is worth $13.65 million, with incentives that could push the total value up to $19.5 million.

According to People magazine, he married a woman named Brittani. She is a private person and stays off social media.
