Aaron Rodgers addressed a viral controversy involving his new teammate, Drew Allar, during an appearance on the “Not Just Football with Cam Heyward” podcast. Rodgers, a future Hall of Fame quarterback, shared insights about Allar, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback who was implicated in a so-called “racy” direct message thread that surfaced in 2025.
Rodgers commented on the situation, stating, “For those pop culture enthusiasts, there’s a DM thread out there about Drew. He definitely wanted me to come on here and say it’s not true, and that it was made up, but it’s out there. It’s a little racy.” Despite the gossip, Rodgers assured listeners that Allar remains committed in his relationship, highlighting the rookie’s stability and happiness.
Drew Allar and his girlfriend Emma Bush have been together since high school, and their relationship appears unaffected by the rumors, as demonstrated by Bush’s recent TikTok post celebrating their seven years together. Rodgers also reminisced about first hearing of Allar when the DM scandal drew attention in quarterback circles due to its shocking nature.
Rodgers went on to discuss his own upcoming plans, including his anticipated retirement after this NFL season. He expressed enjoyment of his time with the Steelers, alongside Mason Rudolph, Will Howard, and Drew Allar, calling it one of his favorite quarterback groups.
