He previously indicated during an April appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" he was "in a serious relationship." Rodgers revealed in that same interview he was delaying a decision about his future due to personal matters. It is unclear whether the quarterback's wedding was among those personal matters, but the 41-year-old explained to McAfee that he had "people in my inner circle battling difficult stuff."

2025 U.S. Open predictions, picks, odds: Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau favorites
The first two golf majors of the year have been claimed, with Rory McIlroy winning the Masters Tournament in April and Scottie Scheffler taking the PGA Championship last month. Who will win the 2025 U.S. Open? The third major of the year is set to tee off at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania, on Thursday for a record 10th time. Scheffler (+275) and McIlroy (+1400) are among the favorites to win the 2025 U.S. Open, along with reigning U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau (+750), who is looking to become the eighth golfer to win back-to-back U.S. Open titles and the first since Brooks Koepka repeated in 2018. Advertisement McIlroy won the U.S. Open in 2011, while Scheffler's best result at the tournament came in 2022 when he was the runner-up behind champion Matt Fitzpatrick. Scottie Scheffler walks to the first tee during the final round of the Memorial Tournament golf tournament on June 1, 2025. Here's everything you need to know about the 2025 U.S. Open: Predictions for 2025 U.S. Open Championship Dylan Dethier, Xander Schauffele always shows up at U.S. Open "Don't let him throw you off the scent with his first non-top-20 major finish in three-plus years or a surprisingly poor putting performance at the Memorial. If Xander can find the groove with his driver, he has as good a chance as anybody to win this thing. Don't forget: He's played eight U.S. Opens in his life, he's never finished worse than 14th, and he has six top-7s. Book this man for a win, cover your bases with a top 10." Jessica Marksbury, Scottie Scheffler continues to dominate "How can I go with any other player? Scottie is back in alpha mode, and a U.S. Open at Oakmont — golf's toughest test on the game's toughest course — will identify the most complete player as champion. That's Scottie. Third leg of the career grand slam comin' up!" Nick Piastowski, Bryson DeChambeau repeats "With high rough, give me the guy who's hitting wedges into the greens. It's hard to bet against Scottie Scheffler, but I'm predicting a DeChambeau repeat." Iain MacMillan, Sports Illustrated: Scottie Scheffler is running a one-man race "If you aren't going to bet on Scottie Scheffler, you should stick to betting the 'without Scheffler' market. We haven't seen a golfer listed with as short of odds as +280 to win a major since Tiger Woods in his prime, but in my opinion, his odds should be even shorter. Advertisement "He has won three of his last four starts, including running away with the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow. Over the last six months, Scheffler has gained 0.73 true strokes per round more than any other golfer in the world. The 0.73 strokes per round gap between Scheffler and the second-ranked golfer, Bryson DeChambeau, is the same as the gap between DeChambeau and Sepp Straka."
