From Bleacher Report<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\nOne source, who was close to Rodgers for years but is among the many who have since been cut off by Rodgers entirely, said the quarterback has not spoken to his family since December 2014. Don’t feel too bad, J-Mike. Immediate family members don’t even have his cellphone number. When Mom and Dad sent Christmas presents to the quarterback and his girlfriend that year, the source said, those gifts were mailed back in February. He was set to be the groomsman in the wedding of one of his closest friends, the source said, and texted the day before he couldn’t attend.<\/p>\n

He didn’t attend his grandfather’s funeral\u2014the same grandfather he once called before every game.<\/p>\n

He fired a business manager he’s known since high school.<\/p>\n

The family was told they were no longer welcome in Green Bay. If Dad wants to attend a game now, he buys tickets on StubHub or goes through another player’s family.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
