Bleacher Report and YAHOO Sports reports that Green Bay Packers quarterback texted his friend a day before his wedding to say he wasn’t showing up and Rodgers was a groomsmen along with his brother. Luke, his brother, posted an Instagram picture at the wedding with caption “Real Friends Show Up” and “Never Forget Where You Come From”.

Reports also state that Rodgers hasn’t talked to his parents since 2014.

One source, who was close to Rodgers for years but is among the many who have since been cut off by Rodgers entirely, said the quarterback has not spoken to his family since December 2014. Don’t feel too bad, J-Mike. Immediate family members don’t even have his cellphone number. When Mom and Dad sent Christmas presents to the quarterback and his girlfriend that year, the source said, those gifts were mailed back in February. He was set to be the groomsman in the wedding of one of his closest friends, the source said, and texted the day before he couldn’t attend. – Bleacher Report

Packers are 4-5, sitting third in their division NFC North. Rodgers has a quarterback rating of 72.3 and 7 interceptions going into Week 11. He had 8 interception all of last season.
