Profession and Career

Let’s take a look at Aaron’s incredible collegiate career before moving on to his professional accomplishments.

Career in College

Rodger attracted little notice from recruiters despite his outstanding high school record.

According to reports, he claimed that his lack of interest in the recruitment process stemmed from his disappointing physical size as a high school athlete of 5’10” (1.78 m) and 165 lbs (75 kgs).

Initially, he intended to enroll at Florida State University and play under head coach Bobby Bowden.

The university, however, turned him down, and the University of Illinois invited him to compete for a scholarship.

He turned down the offer and pondered giving up football to get a legal degree.

Furthermore, he was recruited to play football at Butte Community College in Oroville.

Career Advancement

He led Butte to the NorCal Conference championship and a No. 2 national rating as a rookie, with a 10-1 record.

There, he was recognized by Jeff Tedford, the head coach of the California Golden Bears.

Tedford was somewhat aback when he learned that Aaron had not been recruited by any of the collegiate teams.

Aaron was eligible to transfer to the University of California, Berkeley, due to his strong high school record.

In the fifth game of the 2003 season, the coach made Rodgers the starting quarterback, and as a sophomore, he guided the Golden Bears to a 7–3 record.

Reggie Robertson was forced to replace Aaron in the second half of the game due to an unexpected injury.

In the same season, his 394-yard pass against Virginia Tech earned him MVP honors in the Insight Bowl.

During his junior year, Aaron guided the squad to a 10–1 record and a top-five regular-season ranking.

He set a new school record for straight 26 completed passes in the same game.

Aaron had a total of 24 touchdowns, eight interceptions, and 2,566 throwing yards in the 2004 season.

A Professional Life

Aaron decided to forego his senior season in 2014 in order to enter the 2005 NFL Draft. The NFL Draft was held in 2005.

Aaron was expected to be taken early in the 2005 NFL Draft due to his strong collegiate records.

He was confident that the San Francisco 49ers, whom he grew up rooting for, would select him before the draft.

However, quarterback Alex Smith was selected by the San Francisco 49ers, while Aaron was selected by the Green Bay Packers as the 24th overall pick.

Aaron’s drop to the 24th pick and the Green Bay Packers’ decision to draft Brett Favre’s eventual replacement was one of the greatest stories of the draft, despite the fact that Rodgers was still the second quarterback chosen.

Years of back-up

Aaron signed a five-year contract worth $7.7 million in August 2005, with $5.4 million guaranteed.

He played his debut season as the team’s backup quarterback. Aaron did not play in any games, although he did lead the scout team during practice.

Coach Mike Sherman was fired by the Green Bay Packers and replaced by Mike McCarthy.

Aaron was sent to McCarthy’s “Quarterback school” six hours a day, many times a week by his coach.

He quickly recovered and was able to begin the 2007 season.

Earlier in the 2007 season, rumors of Aaron’s possible trade began to circulate.

He was not traded, though, and remained with the Green Bay Packers.

Brett Favre announced his retirement on March 4th, 2008.

Aaron was given the starting quarterback job by the Packers for the 2008 season as a result of this decision.

Aaron’s stats of 4,038 yards passing soon established him as one of the league’s greatest quarterbacks. The squad beat the Minnesota Vikings with him as the starting quarterback.

Aaron won the FedEx Air Award the following week after receiving votes during his second NFL start.

While playing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the fourth week of the season, his streak of 157 straight pass attempts without an interception came to an end.
