According to the NFL, Rodgers finished fifth in fan voting, trailing only Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Rodgers received 309,311 votes, or roughly 30,000 fewer than Mahomes, his biggest competition for MVP.

Overall, the Packers received the third-most fan votes overall, trailing the Pittsburgh Steelers and Seahawks.

The Packers had three players lead their respective positions in fan voting: left tackle David Bakhtiari, outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith and long snapper Hunter Bradley.
