Aaron Rodgers has reportedly begun to mend fences with his estranged brother, Jordan.

A source told People that the two brothers have “started talking a little bit,” but cautioned that “there’s still a division” that exists between them.

“They’re just very different people with different outlooks,” People’s source said. “But they’re family and they know that.” 

Jordan Rodgers, 33, played quarterback at Vanderbilt and is a college football color commentator for ESPN.

The rift between the brothers became particularly exposed when Jordan was a competitor on “The Bachelorette” in 2016. He took now-fiancée JoJo Fletcher to their family home, and Aaron was not there.

“I miss my brother a lot,” Jordan Rodgers said on the show. “Especially in moments like this because my family means so much.”

“I have a great relationship with my brother Luke. Me and Aaron really don’t have much of a relationship,” Jordan explained in the series. “It’s just kind of the way he’s chosen to do life, and I chose to stay close with my family, my parents and my brother.

“It’s not ideal, and I love him. I can’t imagine what it’s like to be in his shoes and have the pressure he has and the demands from people he has. Don’t have hard feelings against him. It’s just how things go right now.”

In 2018, Jordan ripped his brother for raising money for fire victims in Northern California while allegedly ignoring the plight of their parents.

“But when your own Mom is home alone during the fires, car packed ready to evacuate [and] you miss the fundamental first step of compassion; calling your parents to make sure they are safe … Everything else just feels like an act,” Jordan wrote in a since-deleted tweet.

Aaron Rodgers, 38, spoke Tuesday about his future in football, saying that “everything is definitely on the table” — meaning returning to the Packers, retirement or perhaps even a trade to another organization. Green Bay’s season ended in a crushing playoff loss to the 49ers in the NFC divisional round.
