More importantly, she emphasized that she is Aaron Rodgers‘ biggest fan. She spoke very highly of Rodgers and his style of play. Earlier, Rodgers had given Foster a shoutout during his MVP speech.
“He just knows I’m his biggest fan,” Foster said. “I’m a big Packers fan. You see, he said, ‘My team,’ even though he said, ‘Off the field.’
“That makes me a Green Bay Packer. People keep saying to me, ‘No, Jodie, that does not mean you’re part of the team.’ But it does mean I’m part of the team.”
