His brother Jordan Rodgers seemed to take issue with his plea, and fired back with a post of his own, taking the Green Bay Packers quarterback to task for not practicing what he preaches.
“PLEASE DONATE, SPREAD AWARENESS & SEND LOVE. But when your own Mom is home alone during the fires, car packed ready to evacuate, & you miss the fundamental first step of compassion; calling your parents to make sure they are safe….,” Jordan commentd. “Everything else just feels like an act.”

Many Twitter users have in turn taken issue with Jordan’s choice to “air dirty family laundry in a public forum,” and have tweeted back to him to let him know.
“Taking your grievance with your brother to Twitter, to humiliate and embarrass him when he’s trying to do good, instead of reaching out to him privately and airing dirty laundry like this, helps no one,” one person commented. “Time and place. You own a phone as well.“
Calling him fake when he’s cutting a seven figure check to help those in need, and also using his foundation to raise more money, AND having one of the companies that he represents in advertising, MATCH the funds up to a million? That’s generous, not phony.

At this time, Aaron does not appear to have publicly responded to Jordan’s comments.
