For the fourth time in his career, Aaron Rodgers is the NFL’s Most Valuable Player.
Rodgers was named MVP during the NFL Honors ceremony on Thursday evening, earning the award for a tremendous regular season for the Green Bay Packers in 2021. This gives him back-to-back MVPs and four such awards overall, adding to the honors he also received in 2011, 2014, and 2020.
With his fourth MVP, Rodgers trails only Peyton Manning and his five MVPs for the most all-time. Notably, Manning was the person who introduced Rodgers as this year’s MVP winner. Rodgers had previously been tied with Jim Brown, Johnny Unitas, Brett Favre, and Tom Brady with three while Favre, Rodgers’ predecessor in Green Bay, is famously the only player to ever win three consecutive MVPs, doing so in 1995, 1996, and 1997.
