Aaron Rodgers, the New York Jets quarterback, has expressed mixed feelings about the upcoming biography about his life, titled “Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers.” While he is eager to read the chapter about his paternal grandfather, Edward Rodgers, a World War II combat pilot, he is less enthusiastic about the rest of the book.

Rodgers revealed that he learned new facts about his grandfather, including his involvement in a war crimes tribunal, where he testified against the Germans. He also discovered that his grandfather attended the University of Texas at Austin, a fact he was previously unaware of.

However, Rodgers expressed skepticism about the accuracy of some of the stories in the biography, stating that they may not be “based on a lot of fact.” He acknowledged that the author, Ian O’Connor, had put in a significant amount of time and effort into researching his life, but he believes that some of the stories may be exaggerated or perspectively true.

Rodgers also emphasized the importance of putting the stories into context, suggesting that some of the accounts may be true, while others may be embellished over time. He concluded that he doesn’t know what kind of book O’Connor has written, implying that he is uncertain about the overall accuracy of the biography.

The biography, which is set to be released later this month, has generated significant interest among football fans and those interested in Rodgers’ personal life. While Rodgers may have some reservations about the book, it is clear that he is proud of his grandfather’s heroic actions during World War II.
