Last summer, before the 40-year-old made his debut with the Jets, Ed bought a ticket to see his son compete in the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, according to an excerpt from the upcoming book Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers, reported by the New York Post on Thursday, August 8. After the round, Aaron told his caddie and longtime friend, Jordan Russell, “I think that was what needed to happen.” He echoed the sentiment later to O’Connor, saying, “That was a special moment,” and added that he believes the path to reconciliation with his family would be through his father.
