Rodgers also spoke about his plans for the future and it includes kids. 

The "next great challenge will be being a father," he said. I'm "in the age group where a lot of my close friends from high school and college are fathers now and have families of their own," he added.

The "Big Little Lies" star added that she has "yet to go to a football game and before I'd met him, I'd never seen one football game before... I didn't really grow up with sports, especially American sports, it was never really on my radar."

Woodley added, "I don't know him as the football guy, I know him as the nerd that wants to host 'Jeopardy!,' that's the dude I know."
