Aaron Rodgers was let go by the New York Jets last month, and team owner Woody Johnson recently addressed their parting ways with ESPN’s Rich Cimini. Johnson stated that the team decided to simply experiment by bringing in Rodgers to their squad, and while the experiment was indeed a great one, things still didn’t work out for the team and the 41-year-old quarterback.
Rodgers joined the New York Jets back in 2023, but did not exactly perform well in the first season with the team. In his second year, however, Rodgers managed to stun critics and fans. His performance was although, definitely not enough, with the team finishing in third place of the AFC East table with five wins and 12 defeats.
“Woody Johnson on Rodgers: “The experiment was a good experiment, to bring him in, but it just didn’t work out, as you can see. I have a lot of respect for Aaron Rodgers. He is a great player, a Hall of Famer player. I’m sorry it didn’t work out.” #Jets” New York Jets’ owner, Woody Johnson said according to Rich Cimini from ESPN.

Aaron Rodgers’ Ex-Fiancee Shailene Woodley Spotted With Lucas Bravo
On another note, Aaron Rodgers’ ex-fiancee, Shailene Woodley, was recently spotted with Lucas Bravo in Paris. Rodgers and Woodley started dating back in 2020 and got engaged in 2021. Sadly, the two never got to actually tie the knot after breaking up in 2022.
In recent interviews, Woodley opened up about what went wrong in her relationship with Aaron Rodgers. According to Woodley, her romance with Rodgers was extremely toxic, but also beautiful at the same time. Apparently, the relationship that she had with Rodgers caused her to become depressed and suffer from anxiety attacks.

Perhaps Shailene Woodley’s newfound love in Lucas Bravo might be more healing for her. Woodley and the ‘Emily in Paris’ star, were seen walking around in Paris with his arms around her.

While Woodley is seemingly dating Bravo, Aaron Rodgers is reportedly dating Mallory Edens. Edens is the daughter of Wes Edens, one of the primary owners of the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks. According to recent reports, Rodgers and Edens are quite happy and have also been able to give each other the ‘me-time’ that they both deserve.
