Aaron Rodgers makes a helmet switch

When Aaron Rodgers arrived for minicamp practices in Pittsburgh, he didn't like his new helmet.

He now has a different one.

Rodgers had worn the Schutt Air XP Pro Q11 LTD, for years. It landed on the banned list for 2025.

I can't stand the helmet," Rodgers said during mandatory minicamp. I've worn a Schutt for 20 years and somehow it finally didn't pass the safety standard."

When training camp opened, Rodgers was wearing a different helmet. Per the team, he'll be using the Schutt Air XP Po VTD II for the 2025 season.

It's one of the few remaining helmets with a smooth, flat shell. More and more of them have holes and flats and divots and undulations.
