Aaron Rodgers waxes poetic about past relationship with Danica Patrick: 'We both were finding our way'

Aaron Rodgers is, of course, the four-time MVP of the Green Bay Packers. He's one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, but also one of the more intriguing players off the field as well.

In fact, Rodgers is a tabloid star. From his spots in commercials to his hosting of game shows, Rodgers is always in the headlines. That's especially true regarding his many public relationships, from his ex-fiancée Shailene Woodley, to Olivia Munn.

Rodgers apparently has a type, and that type is already famous.

That was certainly the case when he dated famous Indy Car driver Danica Patrick for two years. She was arguably as big of a star in her sport as he was in his. The relationship didn't last, like many of Rodgers' flings. Recently looking back on his time with Patrick in a long-spanning and brutally honest podcast interview with Aubrey Marcus, though, the NFL quarterback did have good things to say about the relationship.

"I was dating Danica and that relationship was great for me because she is on her own journey and spirituality is important to her," he said, according to People Magazine online. "We both were finding our way, learning about different things [and] practicing meditation techniques."

Patrick and Rodgers broke it off in July 2020. A year later, he got engaged to Woodley, an actress, but that relationship didn't last long either.

Unlike his relationships, Rodgers is as steady as they come on the football field. He's entering his 18th season in the NFL in just a few weeks, all with the Packers.
