Aaron Rodgers’ Teammates and Fans Show Their Support Despite Injury
There was a lot of excitement surrounding the Green Bay Packers’ matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles last week. However, that excitement quickly turned to concern when Aaron Rodgers was injured. Reports indicate that Rodgers suffered a rib injury, and while it’s not yet clear if he will be able to play this weekend, his teammates and fans have already shown their support for the star quarterback.
Aaron Rodgers has been the leader of the Green Bay Packers for nearly 15 years, so it’s no surprise that his teammates are rallying around him during this uncertain time. While Jordan Love—the Packers’ first-round draft pick—did make some impressive plays during Sunday’s game, his presence on the field brought an unwelcome reminder to many fans that one day he could replace Rodgers as their starting quarterback. But despite speculation about Love’s future with the team, most Packer players have remained focused on supporting their leader through this difficult situation.
But this is different for social media. Social media and some of the mainstream media do not approve of Aaron Rodgers. These guys don’t understand what Aaron Rodgers brings to the table. Mainstream media only focuses on the off-field statements Rodgers contributes.
Aaron Rodgers fans know the drill about talent, leadership, and resilience. They have shown their support for Rodgers throughout this uncertain time. #12 has been trending on Twitter since Sunday’s game, with many fans posting messages of encouragement and wishing him a speedy recovery. There have also been reports of die-hard Packer fans sending get-well cards to Rodgers’ home address in hopes of showing him just how much he means to them.
It is still unclear whether or not Aaron Rodgers will be able to take the field this weekend; however, it is clear that his teammates and fans are behind him every step of the way. Despite rumors circulating about Jordan Love taking over as starting QB, his teammates remain loyal to their leader while Packer Nation continues to show its unwavering support for #12.
