More importantly, she emphasized that she is Aaron Rodgers‘ biggest fan. She spoke very highly of Rodgers and his style of play. Earlier, Rodgers had given Foster a shoutout during his MVP speech.

“He just knows I’m his biggest fan,” Foster said. “I’m a big Packers fan. You see, he said, ‘My team,’ even though he said, ‘Off the field.’

“That makes me a Green Bay Packer. People keep saying to me, ‘No, Jodie, that does not mean you’re part of the team.’ But it does mean I’m part of the team.”

Aaron Rodgers had a fantastic 2020 NFL season. He led the Packers to a 13-3 record, which allowed them to secure the #1 seed in the NFC.

Because of this, they got a bye from the Wildcard round of the Playoffs. Rodgers and the Packers were able to get past the LA Rams with relative ease, to make their way to the NFC championship game.
