After reports surfaced that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had previously been in a gay relationship, the NFL superstar spoke out on Tuesday to deny the allegations, and RadarOnline.com has the audio clip.
Speaking with an ESPN affiliate in Milwaukee, Rodgers laughed off the claims that he'd had a sexual relationship with his former assistant and roommate, Kevin Lanflisi.
"I'm just gonna say, I'm not gay. I really, really like women," Rodgers, 30, said.

"That's all I can say about that."
Until today, Rodgers nor his team, agent or girlfriend's family had spoken out on the reports.
Rodgers has been dating Destiny Newton, a relationship that was first reported by Radar, but her family has been instructed not to comment on the status of her relationship with him.
