While Aaron Rodgers had himself another successful season on the field, his brother, Jordan, has found success in the studio at ESPN. After appearing on the ESPN-operated SEC Network as an analyst, he is moving up the ladder to become a key part of the "SEC Nation" program this fall.

According to the Andrew Marchand of the New York Post, Rodgers will have a Kirk Herbstreit-esque role, as he will appear on the studio show and then call an SEC game on Saturdays.

The gameday show will now consist of Tim Tebow, Jordan Rodgers, and host Laura Rutledge, with Paul Finebaum and Marcus Spears having moved on.

Rodgers has experience playing in the SEC, with two fruitful years at Vanderbilt in 2011 and '12. He became the first quarterback to lead Vandy to back-to-back bowl games, and finished his career seventh all-time in total offense at the school.

After going undrafted in 2013, he signed contracts with three NFL teams, but never made it past the practice squad. In 2016, Rodgers became a contestant on "The Bachelorette" and ended up winning the reality show competition. Later that year, he signed on to be a host for ESPN.

While his brother is entering the twilight of his career on the gridiron, Jordan's star is only rising at the Worldwide Leader.
