According to TerezOwens.com, the popular NASCAR driver recently visited the Packers quarterback in Green Bay, and he flew to Indianapolis to meet Patrick's parents. The site reported the two got together "immediately" after Patrick broke up with her boyfriend of five years, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., in late 2017.
Rodgers saw his own long-term relationship, with Olivia Munn, end in April. Pressed on the topic last week, Patrick was tight-lipped on the matter.

Whether true or not, the mainstream media is now reporting there's something up between Rodgers and Patrick. The New York Post noted in a headline Tuesday, "Aaron Rodgers-Danica Patrick romance getting serious quick." Fox News reported, "Aaron Rodgers and Danica Patrick are reportedly dating," and Maxim.com called the pair "the world's newest super couple."
Rodgers has talked in the past about the difficulty of dating while being in the spotlight. While both Rodgers and Patrick would likely prefer their relationship, if true, to remain a private matter, that's not likely to happen given their high-profile sports careers.
Rodgers is a two-time NFL MVP who's headed for the hall of fame. Patrick has spent more than a decade in motorsports, including the last five seasons as a full-time competitor in NASCAR's premier Cup series. She is currently slated to drive just a couple of events this coming season after losing her ride at the end of 2017.
