Two Of Aaron Rodgers' Ex-Girlfriends Publicly Speak Out Against Him
Aaron Rodgers isn't expected to make a decision on the 2026 NFL season prior to the draft this weekend.
The Steelers are not expected to learn of Rodgers' status prior to Thursday night, when the first round of the NFL Draft begins. Rodgers, who is coming off his first year in Pittsburgh, is expected to return for the 2026 season. However, he has yet to make that official.
"The #Steelers have not received word from Aaron Rodgers on his future and there is no expectation of a final decision prior to the NFL Draft, per me and @TomPelissero . When minicamp begins today under new coach Mike McCarthy, Will Howard will be QB1," NFL Media's Ian Rapoport reported.
Rodgers is no stranger when it comes to making headlines.
The veteran NFL quarterback, who is now married - to a woman yet to be identified - has had some very public relationships.
Two of Rodgers' famous ex-girlfriends have spoken out against him, though.
Rodgers' famous exes speak out
Rodgers' ex-girlfriend, Danica Patrick - whom he dated for several years before a breakup in 2020 - claimed that he was emotionally abusive.
"People could never imagine that I would lack … any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am. Everything was torn to bits," Patrick told Sage Steele in a 2025 interview. "Yeah, he leaves a trail of blood. I don't think I'm saying too much earth-shattering stuff after we - there's been enough out there."
Patrick admitted she ignored some red flags.
"Hindsight, I ignored it, but in real life, it was just like I just feel like - I would say all the time, ‘I'm built for hard things. I can handle hard things.' And so I just saw it as a hard thing," she admitted.
Olivia Munn, who dated Rodgers from 2014 until 2017, refused to watch his documentary, "Enigma," on Netflix.
"I knew what it was going to be," she said, according to Us Weekly. She added that she felt the project was "going to push a narrative" that she felt "never would ring true" with her.
Munn didn't like how she was portrayed.
"There was this narrative that took hold because, if you remember back in the day, Jessica Simpson was hung out to dry for the Cowboys failures [when she dated Tony Romo]," Munn continued. "During the time that I was with him, he had three Hail Marys, I think two NFC championships, not wins, but he made it into the NFC championship, which is very hard. No one would want to talk about that. I didn't get credit for any of the wins."
It's no surprise, then, that Rodgers' current wife has chosen to stay private.
