There’s also a guy in the crowd in England who kind of looks like Aaron Rodgers and he’s getting plenty of shoutouts during Sunday’s game.
Aaron Rodgers : Look alike | Twin brother | Memes
The Packers entered the season as Super Bowl contenders with what appeared to be a strong defensive roster and an offense still led by Aaron Rodgers. Instead, they look like a competitive team instead of one that has a chance to take home the Lombardi Trophy.
The Packers blew a 17-3 lead on Sunday to a New York Giants team that has struggled to generate any offense outside of Saquon Barkley — until they faced the Packers in London.
Even when Barkley was briefly out of the game with a shoulder injury, the Packers were unable to slow down the combination of Daniel Jones and Darius Slayton.
“We’ve got to handle adversity a little bit better,” Rodgers said. “We’re a bit of a roller coaster team at times. Our best teams have been a little more steady.”
Aaron Rodgers look alike
All the buzz over the Aaron Rodgers look-alike shown in the stands at Lambeau Field during the “Sunday Night Football” broadcast has made its way to the “other” Aaron Rodgers.
“Total plant,” Rodgers joked during his regular Tuesday appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.” “That was a total plant by NBC, I’m sure.”
During the fourth quarter of the Chicago Bears-Green Bay Packers game, NBC showed a fan in the crowd who looked jaw-droppingly like Rodgers (with maybe just a little less salt and more pepper in a fuller beard).
The identity of the quarterback twin wasn’t immediately confirmed but not for lack of people trying to solve the mystery on social media.
“He’s allegedly a Canadian Bavarian fella who currently lives in Germany,” McAfee said.
A Twitter account with the handle @SherbyFranky in the Bavarian city of Munich appears to show the same person at what looks like Munich International Airport in the background. “Finally Home, the End of a Legendary Weekend,” reads the caption on a photo posted Tuesday, along with the hashtags #doppelganger and #DoubleAaron.
On Tuesday, WISN-TV (Channel 12) in Milwaukee was able to reach the man, who lives in Germany and asked to be identified as only Frank for privacy reasons, to confirm it was him.
Twin brother
Two brothers, one feud. Jordan Rodgers and his family are estranged from his brother Aaron Rodgers, but neither have shied away from speaking out about their difficult relationship.
Although the origin of their falling out is unclear, many factors have contributed to Jordan and Aaron’s ongoing tension, which was first made public in 2016 on JoJo Fletcher’s season of The Bachelorette.
Jordan, who ultimately won the season, didn’t shy away from telling Fletcher that Aaron doesn’t keep in touch with his family.
“It pains both of us, like, not to have that relationship [with Aaron] – we miss our brother,” the eldest Rodgers sibling, Luke, said on The Bachelorette in 2016. “I trust that God brings things full circle and that everything would just get back to us being a family.”
In addition to the athlete never publicly commenting on Jordan’s relationship with Fletcher, the Rodgers family stayed mum when Aaron announced his engagement to Shailene Woodley in February 2021. A source told Us Weekly at the time that it was unclear whether they would score an invite to the nuptials.
“It’ll for sure be a special day and it would be wrong of him to not invite his family,” the insider said in March 2021. “But everyone is aware of their strained relationship and knows that [those] problems aren’t going to get fixed in one day. Whether they decide to come [is] up to them.”
Memes
On Tuesday, July 26, National Football League (NFL) quarterback for Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers showed up to training camp styled similar to Nicolas Cage in 1997’s Con Air.
A video shared by Green Bay Packers on Twitter on Tuesday showcased Rodgers’ outfit and hairstyle at the 2022 training camp.
Aaron Rodgers sported a tight white tank top vest along with blue jeans and a black belt. The 38-year-old further wore a pair of black leather boots. In addition to his attire, the NFL QB also sported slicked-back long hair, which completed his Con Air- inspired Nicolas Cage look.
This is not the first time Aaron Rodgers has generated such hype with his pop-culture-inspired looks. In last season’s camp training, the QB showed up wearing a shirt that referred to the famous incident in the iconic The Office episode featuring “Kevin’s Famous Chili.” This was not surprising as the renowned NFL player had a cameo role in the famed NBC sitcom’s A.A.R.M. episodes in Season 9.
Aaron Rodgers later took to his Instagram to share this look and referred to Nicolas Cage as the “#greatestactorofalltime.” He further added captions to the picture which were phrases said by Cage’s character, Cameron Poe, in Con Air. The caption read:
“Put…the…bunny…back in the box…What do you think I’m gonna do? I’m gonna save the f**kin’ day! #cameronpoe.”
The Instagram post also had a picture of Nicolas Cage’s look from the 1997 action film.
