Aaron Charles Rodgers was born on 2 December 1983, in Chico, California in the United States. His father, Edward Wesley Rodgers, works as a chiropractor, and his mother’s name is Darla Leigh. He is of English, Irish, and German ancestry. He is the second of three sons.

From an early age, he received inspiration form his father, who himself used to be a footballer, playing for the Chico State Wildcats for three years. Rodgers learnt fast and by the time he was five, he could throw a football through a hanging tire.

Rodgers attended several schools, such as Vose Elementary High School and Pleasant Valley High School. As a talented player, he set a variety of records.

After completing his high school graduation, he attended the Butte Community College, located in Northern California. Later, he received an athletic scholarship from the University of California. There, he played for the California Golden Bears football team for a year.

He played well for the team, and led it to several victories. In the Insight Bowl, he was named ‘Most Valuable Player’. He set a school record as well, for consecutive completed passes with 26 touchdowns and tied an NCAA record with 23 consecutive passes completed in a game.

In the 2005 NFL Draft, Aaron Rodgers was selected by the Green Bay Packers, based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Though he had a great desire to be picked by the San Francisco 49ers, they had instead picked Alex Smith.

In August 2005, he agreed to a five-year deal with the Packers which was worth $7.7 million. Despite his brilliant skills, very little of him was seen in his rookie season.

After the retirement of Brett Favre in 2008, Rodgers became the starting quarterback for the 2008 season. Passing for over 4000 yards and throwing for 28 touchdowns in his first season, Rodgers proved to be one of the best quarterbacks in the league.

His performance in the 2009 season was equally brilliant, and he was named NFL Offensive Player of the Month for October 2009 when he passed for 988 yards, and completed 74.5 percent of his passes as well.

In 2010, he was named the ‘FedEx Air NFL Player of the Year’ due to his excellent passing performance during the season. Along with setting numerous NFL records in both 2010 and 2011, he successfully led his team to victory in the 2011 Superbowl.

Aaron Rodgers has been honored with several awards throughout his career, such as the ‘NFC Offensive Player of the Year’ award (twice, in 2011 and 2014), and the ‘FedEx Air NFL Player of the Year award (twice, in 2010 and 2014).

Some of his achievements are ‘Best touchdown to interception ratio in the History of NFL’ (4.13), ‘First player in the history of NFL to pass for over 4000 yards in each of the first two seasons as starting quarterback’, and ‘Most Consecutive Games with at least three touchdown passes and no interceptions’ (4).
