According to the New York Post, Patrick was said to be a no-show at a recent charity golf event which Rodgers had participated in.
The pair were last seen together in a photo posted on the same picture and video sharing social network back in April.
In the post, the former Nascar driver reminisced about their Machu Picchu trip in which they narrowly made it out of Peru amid the coronavirus lockdown.
The Green Bay Packers quarterback called in to the Pat McAfee Show in March to detail how they caught a flight out of the South American country just before the airport amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Aaron, who was traveling with three other people, told the host that his flight out of the country nine days ago felt like a scene from Ben Affleck’s hit movie Argo, about a group of Americans trying to escape Iran after the 1979 revolution.
The film features a climactic scene in which the group have to rush for their own flight out of the country.
‘Nobody was chasing us, thankfully, or holding us,’ he said, referring to the movie. ‘We didn’t have to speak Farsi to get back into the country, but there were some moments where we worried we were not going to get out.’
According to Aaron, there was ‘absolute pandemonium at the airport’ as people rushed to make flights before the impending shutdown.
