Aaron Rodgers pays tribute to ‘legendary, epic human’ Taylor Swift and ‘spectacular’ Phoebe Bridgers after enjoying star’s Eras Tour at ‘new home’ MetLife Stadium
Aaron Rodgers had perhaps his best weekend yet in New York as he went to see two nights of Taylor Swift’s Era’s Tour at the Metlife Stadium.
The quarterback will be playing there later in the year after moving to the New York Jets from the Green Bay Packers in a trade that has captivated the NFL.
But over the weekend, Rodgers was a shameless Swifty as he went to see the pop star in concert.
Reflecting on the shows on his Instagram on Monday night, Rodgers said: ‘Incredible weekend at my new home #metlifestadium with some special friends Miles and @keleighteller, a bunch of new ones, and the legendary @taylorswift who absolutely rocked the house for 3 1/2 hours each night!!!
‘She is truly a master entertainer and epic human, and @phoebebridgers was spectacular as well.

New Jets QB Rodgers was there for two of Swift’s three nights at the MetLife Stadium
‘Thanks to the great security folks, the sweet fans that I met, and all the hospitality from the Tour both nights Hopefully we can make MetLife that loud this year.’
Rodgers tagged Kelleigh Teller – wife of actor Miles Teller – in his Instagram post as well as his former Packers teammate David Bakhtiari.
The Jets quarterback revealed himself to be a massive Taylor Swift fan in a video posted to the team’s official Twitter account, where players were asked their favorite song from the singer whose Eras Tour stops at MetLife Stadium this weekend.
‘Too many. Too many to count,’ the 39-year-old said when asked the question.
Then he got a bit more specific.
‘Anything off of [her album] ‘Folklore’ probably. ‘August,’ ‘The 1.”
Rodgers also offered an older pick to supplement his choices from Swift’s 2020 album, as he called ‘New Year’s Day’ a ‘banger.’
