Aaron Rodgers:
Leader of the Pack
By Rob Reischel

 

The life of Aaron Rodgers, quarterback of the Super Bowl XLV champion Green Bay Packers, is a remarkable story of patience, perseverance, and resolve. Rodgers spent nearly a decade playing the waiting game. He waited for NCAA Division I schools to notice his rare gifts. He waited for what seemed like an eternity to hear his name called during the 2005 NFL Draft. He waited three long seasons for Brett Favre to move on. And he waited three more years before finally winning over all of Packer Nation.

 

But his patience paid off: today, Rodgers is one of football's brightest stars. Relive this journey to greatness-one that was highlighted by leading Green Bay to a record 13th NFL championship-in Aaron Rodgers: Leader of the Pack. Written by award-winning journalist Rob Reischel and richly illustrated with exclusive color photography, this book tells Packers fans everything they need to know about the leader of their favorite team. From his days as an undersized freshman at Pleasant Valley High School in Chico, California, to being named Super Bowl MVP, Rodgers' story is sure to both inspire and entertain.
