Aaron Rodgers won’t talk about his $9.5 million home


Just stay away from Mr. Rodgers’ neighborhood.

Aaron Rodgers has been open with the New York media since being traded to the Packers to the Jets this offseason.

However, there is one topic that he considers off-limits.

The four-time NFL MVP appeared Tuesday on WFAN’s “Boomer and Gio” and his house came up during the wide-ranging interview.

Host Gregg Giannotti asked Rodgers how he plans to furnish all those rooms.

“I have a lot of stuff from other places I’ve lived that I’ve incorporated,” Rodgers responded.

Two weeks ago, The Post reported Rodgers had purchased a $9.5 million house with eight bedrooms and 10 bathrooms in the Montclair area of New Jersey.

However when pressed good-naturedly by Giannotti on his decorating plans, Rodgers decided he had talked about the subject enough.

“Listen, I’m not gonna talk about where I live,” Rodgers said. “There’s enough s–t out there already.”

The Post’s Mary K. Jacobs had the exclusive details on Rodgers’ new pad, which is just 30 minutes from the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center and less than an hour from New York City.

The home offers panoramic views of the Big Apple skyline with walls of windows to maximize natural lighting.

Called an “architectural masterpiece,” the contemporary house sits on more than two acres of land.

Among its features are a media room, home office, three-car garage with a charging station and wine cellar.

Rodgers can certainly afford the property, even though he left $35 million on the table last month when he agreed to a new two-year contract with the Jets.

Following his offseason trade from Green Bay, the 10-time Pro Bowl quarterback had $110 million remaining on his existing contract.

By agreeing to a two-year, $75 million deal, Rodgers freed up cash for the Jets to continue building a Super Bowl contender.

General manager Joe Douglas did just that, signing free-agent running back Dalvin Cook on Monday, giving him a one-year deal worth up to $8.6 million.

With Cook and Rodgers on the roster, it seems to be Super Bowl or bust for the Jets in 2023.
