When Aaron Rodgers first joined the Green Bay Packers, Brett Favre was the star quarterback. Obviously, Favre felt threatened because of the presence of a much younger quarterback who could potentially replace him. As a result, the two shared a fickle relationship all these years.
In a conference call, journalists asked Rodgers about the status of a documentary that both of them were working on. He admitted that there was no clear timeline, but he promised “some really good stuff”.
It was only years ago wherein Favre and Rodgers shared the stage at the 2013 NFL Honors. The two amiably shook hands and even exchanged jokes with one another.

“That was big for our relationship I know. It’s progressed really since the handshake onstage at the Honors to where now him and I are very close, and we do talk very frequently. So that’s been a lot of fun to have him back in my life,” said Rodgers.
It will be recalled that the selection of Rodgers in the 2005 NFL Draft caused quite the commotion in Packers Nation since Favre was still entrenched as the team’s starting quarterback.
