Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers have had a rough go of things on the field this season. Currently sitting at 4-7-1, the Packers' playoff chances are practically gone. They have not been mathematically eliminated just yet, but it would take a miracle for them to make the postseason.
Despite the struggles on the field, Rodgers seems to be getting better off the field. After a long feud with his family, TMZ Sports is reporting that the two sides have worked things out and are back together.
Following the Packers' decision to fire Mike McCarthy, Rodgers stated that he found out when he was with his family. That is the first mention of him being with his family for a few years.
