The lowdown on NFL star Aaron Rodgers’ new $9.5 million mansion
New York Jets quarterback Rodgers has bought himself a luxury New Jersey pad as he prepares for his maiden campaign with his new team.
Aaron Rodgers doesn’t only have a new team; the NFL star also has a stunning new pad. Ahead of his first season with the New York Jets, the legendary quarterback has bought a luxury New Jersey mansion worth around $9.5 million.
Eight rooms, NY views...
Located in Montclair, the 4,000 square-foot home has eight bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, the Daily Mail reports. It also has a gourmet kitchen, a media room, a wine cellar and a garage with space for three cars. Rodgers’ new crib boasts breathtaking views of the New York skyline, too.
Sitting on two acres of land, the mansion is about 10 miles from MetLife Stadium, the Jets’ home arena. While property records show that the house was sold at the end of June, the Mail reveals, it is not clear whether Rodgers has moved in yet.
Joins Jets after illustrious Packers career
In July, former Green Bay Packers star Rodgers agreed a two-year contract with the Jets, with NFL Network reporting that the 39-year-old is set to pocket a guaranteed $75 million as part of the deal.
The four-time NFL MVP spent 18 years with the Packers after joining the Wisconsin franchise in 2005, leading the team to victory at Super Bowl XLV.
