Earlier this month, New York Jets rookie wide receiver Malachi Corley revealed that Jets starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers has taken him under his wing since he was drafted by the team, even allowing Corley to live in his guest house as he transitions to New York. And apparently, that isn’t sitting right with one of Rodgers former Green Bay Packers teammates.
In a since-deleted social media post, former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Amari Rodgers seeming called out Aaron Rodgers for not offering him similar hospitality and treatment when he was trying to enter the league.
“Promise this helps him play better as a Rookie… if only I had this type of love coming into GB, but to each his own!” Rodgers said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter, which has since been deleted.

Aamari Rodgers was selected in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft, but had an inconsistent career with the Packers as he struggled to transition to the NFL.
After spending time with the Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts following his two seasons with the Packers, Amari Rodgers is now with the Birmingham Stallions of the United States Football League.
It’s not clear whether or not Rodgers’ support would have helped him transition into the league, but Amari Rodgers seem to think it would have.
