Aaron Rodgers is surely enjoying his time in New York City after bagging his desired trade out of Green Bay. The QB has been in the lab, this offseason, as he gears up for one of the most crucial seasons of his career. The season could very well be a legacy-defining year for Rodgers, especially at the ripe age of 39. However, he has been in the league for a long time and there are a few things that the QB owns materialistically. 

But even though the HOF-bound QB is set to make north of $50 million this season through endorsements and his contract, it would seem that his appetite to load up his car cabinet has been starved. As he enters a crucial year in his career, Rodgers revealed a few trade secrets about his personal life, with a musical twist.

That’s right, one of football’s richest stars has only one car in his arsenal, and that’s a Range Rover. Unfortunately for all the car buffs and Rodgers fans, the two may not see eye to eye. “I’m not a car guy. I only own one: a Range Rover. I love it”, said Rodgers. While a Rover is still a great and practical vehicle, given the limelight that falls upon Rodgers, one would expect a much more lavish car collection than this. But the QBs collection, instead, lies in his musical endeavors.
