Rodgers posted a photo of him shaking hands with the ex-president.
Rodgers' post followed scrutiny over a viral video that appeared to capture the NFL star seemingly ignoring the ex-president.
In the widely circulated video, Trump was seen walking to his seat alongside UFC president Dana White. As the pair walked down the aisle, with Trump shaking fans' hands in the process, Rodgers and his former Green Bay Packers teammate Mercedes Lewis remained seated.
Trump critics applauded Rodgers for not acknowledging the ex-president in the clip.

Rodgers appeared to glance at up at Trump as he paraded by, but offered no reaction to seeing the ex-president.
While Trump critics applauded the NFL star for not giving the convicted felon ex-president the time of day, others weren't as happy with him over the apparent slight.
"Best thing Rodgers has done in years," wrote one X user in response to the viral video. Another replied, "Aaron Rodgers doing what every person with integrity and morality would do."

Possession of a firearm by a convicted felon is a federal and state crime in both New York and Florida.
The tone on social media quickly shifted, however, after Rodgers posted the Instagram story, which was then shared to X by a fan.
"No, Aaron Rodgers did not snub President Trump. They met and shook hands. Rodgers called the moment 'priceless,'" the X user captioned the post with a screenshot of Rodgers' story.
MAGA supporters quickly applauded the quarterback for "sharing the truth" and slammed those who criticized him a day earlier.
"Imagine jumping to conclusions and shooting bad energy at @AaronRodgers12 because you didn't see this in time," wrote one X user.
