NFL veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers got an honest take from sports host Nick Wright, particularly about his recent statement of not wanting to be in the limelight.
In a recent episode of “First Things First,” program host Nick Wright gave his honest take on Aaron Rodgers not wanting to be under the limelight. For him, Rogers is “unreliable” in his statements.
“He is not a credible narrator,” Wright said about Rodgers. “I think it is important to remind the audience right before or right after he made this announcement, he also said that he relishes the day he no longer is in the spotlight, and he’s only in the spotlight because he plays football.”

He then cited how Rodgers was once the host of the game show program “Jeopardy” for two weeks, and even at one point expressed interest in becoming the Vice President of the United States.
“Because I don’t want the spotlight,” Wright sarcastically added.
Aaron Rodgers recently signed a $13.65 million, one-year contract with the Steelers, following a drawn-out and drama-filled offseason. He is expected to be the franchise’s starting quarterback for the 2025-2026 season.
Aaron Rodgers gives His Honest Comments About Today’s ”Sick Society”
Despite being a hugely popular athlete and being i the limelight for years now, Aaron Rodgers apparently hasn’t gotten used to public attention, and if his recent statement is anything to go by, he probably won’t be used to it at all.
In his recent appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show,” the new Steelers quarterback got honest about his thoughts on people following his private life closely, particularly since people have been on about details about his new wife.
“It’s a sick society, isn’t it? It’s a sick society,” Rodgers said. “And now I’m with somebody who’s private, who doesn’t want to be in the public eye. Didn’t sign up to be a celebrity. Doesn’t want to be a part of it.”

Rodgers recently made headlines as he was spotted singing for the Steelers wearing a new wedding ring. So far, the fans have no details on his recent secret marriage.
“Because I do things in private because I want my personal life to be private, now I’m weird and now the paparazzi is stalking me, trying to get a picture of her,” Rodgers said.
He also added that he is fine if his wife chooses, but leaves that decision to her.
So far in his career, Aaron Rodgers has won one Super Bowl and was named the NFL MVP four times.
