Aaron Rodgers is already working with the Pittsburgh Steelers at the team’s mandatory minicamp. During his first interaction with the press, the quarterback faced all kinds of questions about his new adventure in Steel City.
The veteran acknowledged that one of the main reasons he signed with Pittsburgh was Mike Tomlin. He did not speak at all about a possible retirement and expressed his excitement about getting the opportunity to play for a historic NFL franchise.
What the former Super Bowl champion quarterback with the Packers didn’t expect was that a photograph and a ring would be part of the questions. Rodgers’ response has created a frenzy on social media.
Why is Aaron Rodgers wearing a wedding ring?
Aaron Rodgers is wearing a ring because, indeed, he is now a married man. A reporter asked him the following question after a photo of him signing his contract with the Steelers surfaced, in which he appeared with a ring on his left hand: “A lot’s been made about the ring. Is that an aura ring or anything else? Wedding ring?”
The quarterback responded firmly: “Yeah, it’s a wedding ring.” The reporter replied by saying, “Congratulations,” to which Rodgers politely returned the courtesy: “Thank you.”
In addition, the player was asked how long he had been married, since it was something that had not been revealed to the press. Rodgers kindly shared those details as well: “It’s been a couple of months.”
