Aaron Rodgers’ rumored girlfriend, Mallory Edens, sends love after his season-ending injury
Aaron Rodgers’ rumored girlfriend, Mallory Edens, subtly supported the NFL star following his season-ending injury.
The New York Jets quarterback, who tore his Achilles just four snaps into the Monday night game against the Buffalo Bills, took to Instagram two days later to thank “every person that has reached out, called, texted [or] DM’d” him following the incident.
“It has meant a ton to me, and I’ll try and get back to all of you soon 🥹❤️,” the 39-year-old captioned a series of photos from the game.
“I’m completely heartbroken and moving through all of the emotions, but deeply touched and humbled by the support and love 💔,” he continued. “Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I begin the healing process today. 🙏 ♾️ ❤️.”
While thousands of fans — and fellow Jets players — flooded Rodgers’ post with well wishes, Edens commented with a simple red heart emoji.
Rodgers and Mallory, who is the daughter of Milwaukee Bucks majority owner Wes Edens, have known each other for years.
While the former Super Bowl champ was still playing for the Green Bay Packers, the pair were spotted together at numerous different sporting events, which the 27-year-old once credited to the NFL star’s close relationship with her father.
However, their friendship has seemingly turned into something more.
At the beginning of the year, sources told People that Rodgers and Mallory were officially dating — but noted that it’s “nothing serious at all.”
“It’s more than friends, but it’s casual,” the insider told the outlet in January. “He’s not looking to rush into anything. It’s low-key for now.”
Despite the laid-back nature of their relationship, they were spotted celebrating Rodgers’ birthday together and have seemingly been going strong ever since.

Prior to his romance with the model, Rodgers dated a slew of famous women, including “Gossip Girl” star Jessica Szohr, actress Olivia Munn and race car driver Danica Patrick.
His last serious relationship was with “Divergent” star Shailene Woodley. The pair quietly started dating during the COVID-19 pandemic and announced their engagement in February 2021.
However, the couple split just over a year later due to differing political ideals.
Given Rodgers and Woodley’s whirlwind romance, an insider told People that the NFL star is focused on taking things slow with Mallory.
“He’s not going to do something as quick as Shailene [Woodley]. Live and learn,” the source said.
