After falling to the No. 24 overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft in favor of Alex Smith, former Green Bay Packers, now New York Jets, quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been viewed as one of the most talented quarterbacks to ever play in the NFL.
Check out our podcast, Ride the Line, and delve into Grant and Tanner's top-notch picks for Aaron Rodger's Super Bowl season.
While Rodgers possesses that talent, he’s only won one Super Bowl ring. However, while with the Packers, they seemed to be content with letting Rodgers work with the weapons they gave him, which included later-round selections as they hadn’t drafted a wide receiver in the first round since 2002.
Below, we’ll dive into Rodgers’ championship wins, compare him to other players who have won championships, and look into conference championship appearances.
Rodgers’ lone Super Bowl title win came o February 6, 2011, for the 2010-11 season. There, he and the Packers faced another successful quarterback—Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
During the 2010 regular season, Rodgers had an excellent season, passing for 3,922 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. His 2011 postseason run included four games, with him passing for over 300 yards in two of them, three touchdowns in three of them, and a completion percentage of 66.67% in two of the four.
In the Super Bowl, Rodgers completed 24-of-39 passes for 304 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions.
He was named the Super Bowl MVP as the Packers beat the Steelers 31-25.
With just one Super Bowl win, there are plenty of players throughout NFL history to win two or more rings.
It’s been over a decade since Rodgers won his last title. He was 27 years old during his first win.
Below are some of the Super Bowl-winningest players in NFL history.
