SUMMARY
- Aaron Rodgers beat Tom Brady in a superlative career stat.
- Rodgers interception percentage is 1.4 and Brady's 1.8.
The two iconic individuals of the NFL, Tom Brady, and Aaron Rodgers, are close to each other to beat themselves in a thundering career stat. Eventually, the one-time Super Bowl Champion got the better of the seven-time Super Bowl winner.
Brady and Rodgers are both regarded as the best players of the century. However, a glimpse of their career individually shows that the former New England Patriots star is way ahead in terms of both achievements and stats. Brady began his professional football journey for the Patriots in 2000 and used to dominate the defenders for over two decades.
Besides playing and winning six Super Bowls with the Patriots, he also wore the Buccaneers’ jersey and lifted the last Lombardi Trophy of his career in 2021 with the franchise. The legendary quarterback retired from the game on February 1, 2024. Some of Brady’s notable awards include five Super Bowl MVPs, three NFL Most Valuable Player, two times NFL Offensive Player of the Year, and more.
On the other hand, Rodgers kick-started his professional football career for the Green Bay Packers in 2005 and was the most indispensable troop till 2022. Later, before the 2023 season, he moved to the Jets. But his move to New York is not a more memorable one for the 40-year-old as he suffered a season-ending injury.
With the Packers, Rodgers won his maiden Super Bowl and Super Bowl MVP in 2010. In his NFL career, Rodgers earned four NFL Most Valuable Player awards, four NFL passer rating leaders, and more.
Aaron Rodgers surpasses Tom Brady in a NFL career stat
Undoubtedly, Rodgers is one of the best players in the NFL, but if a short survey is done on the two players careers, it is clearly evident Rodgers is nowhere near Brady’s legacy. During the NFL career, Brady pocketed almost every award and set up several outstanding records.

However, a recent survey by “StatMuse” shows the top four players who have the lowest interception rate in the current century. The list includes Rodgers, Brady, Russell Wilson, and Dak Prescott.
Rodgers finds himself ahead of Brady as his percentage is 1.4, and Brady’s is 1.8, while Wilson and Prescott’s are tied at 1.95%. Beating Brady is no less than an achievement for a player and never an easy job. Therefore, Rodgers doing so indicates why he is regarded as one of the NFL legends.
