If Micah Parsons is still looking for a permanent home in Green Bay after joining the Packers a couple months ago, Aaron Rodgers has a place for him.
His old house.
Rodgers, who spent 18 years with the Packers and knows northeastern Wisconsin, hasn’t lived in the Green Bay area since early 2023.
But Rodgers, now in his first year with the Pittsburgh Steelers after two years in New York with the Jets, has yet to find a buyer for his Green Bay house.
Last year, when Packers quarterback Jordan Love received a new contract, Rodgers told the NFL Network: “J Love, don’t spend it all in one place, but if you do, I still have a house in Green Bay that’s up for sale.”
Then, during the Packers’ game against the Steelers on “Sunday Night Football,” Parsons said that Rodgers “told me to buy his house.”
Maybe that offer won’t be on the table after Parsons and the Packers got the best of Rodgers and the Steelers in a 35-25 victory.
Parsons sacked Rodgers once and also made things uncomfortable for the future Hall of Famer in the second half, including chasing him down in the fourth quarter to force a throwaway.
“The one where I was hawking him down I was like this close to getting him,” Parsons said after the game. “He’s like I heard the crowd (to know to throw it away). That’s some vet (expletive) right there. Cause I’m going, I’m like crowd ‘shh.’ I never even heard other QBs say that.”
Parsons also praised one of Rodgers’ passes in the first quarter when he threw a bomb on the run for a 45-yard completion that set up a field goal.
What almost looked like a throwaway to some turned into “one of the craziest throws” Parsons has seen “in a long time.”
