Aaron Rodgers is objectively one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history and will go down as an absolute legend regardless of whether he wins another Super Bowl. His legacy is secure.
Heading into Saturday’s showdown between the Green Bay Packers and Los Angeles Rams, one of the biggest questions of the day was how Rodgers would perform. After all, the Rams’ defense had some notable playmakers and had been regarded by many as arguably the best in the NFC playoffs by some.
Rather early in the outing, however, the conversation took a turn. More specifically – it became focused on Rodgers’ interesting new hairstyle.

I cringed when he took off his helmet. Did he straighten his hair before the game?

Heading into this weekend, few expected Rodgers’ hairstyle to be the major storyline on everyone’s mind, but 2021 just seems to be a year of fashionable fashion choices. Whether it’s James Harden’s wearing a dress to a game, daughters of team owners taking all their clothes off, or Conor McGregor buying himself a very sensual watch – athletes really seem to be expressing their individualism strongly these days.
