Aaron Rodgers, the four-time MVP and one-time Super Bowl champion, will wrap up his 21st NFL season with a playoff appearance.

Now, in his first season with the Steelers, Rodgers will compete in his 13th postseason thanks to Pittsburgh capturing the final AFC playoff spot with a win over the Ravens on Sunday night.

As previously mentioned, Rodgers does have one Super Bowl title under his belt, but how has he performed in the playoffs throughout his career? Here’s a look at Rodgers’s all-time playoff record.

Aaron Rodgers’s playoff record heading into 2025 postseason with Steelers

The Packers went to the playoffs in the 2007 season, but Rodgers didn’t play a postseason snap as he was still sitting under Brett Favre in that time, so this list conveys Rodgers’s record when he started the game. All of Rodgers’s postseason appearances so far happened when he was with the Packers for 18 seasons. Rodgers’s upcoming playoff game with Pittsburgh will be his first postseason appearance in a uniform other than the Packers' green and gold.

The Texans, who the Steelers play on Monday night in the wild-card round, are a new playoff opponent for Rodgers. He’ll be looking to give Pittsburgh its first postseason win since the 2016 season. This is the Steelers’ sixth playoff appearance since that season, but the team has failed to capture a win in that span.

This year could very well be Rodgers’s last playoff appearance as his status for the 2026 season is still unknown. The 42-year-old could retire in the coming months, or he could attempt to return either to the Steelers or for another team next season. Even if he does play another year, there’s no guarantee that Rodgers’s team will make the playoffs. The Steelers narrowly made it, so there’s never a 100% chance, even with a legendary quarterback like Rodgers on the roster.
