Pittsburgh, PA – September 11, 2025
The NFL community continues to mourn the shocking assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk during a community event earlier this week. Tributes have come from across politics, sports, and entertainment, but the gesture from Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has resonated deeply.
Rodgers has pledged a $300,000 donation to support Kirk’s wife, Erika, and their two young daughters.
According to sources close to the team, the donation has been divided into two parts:
- $125,000 for public murals and floral memorials across Pittsburgh and Charlotte, honoring Kirk’s life and legacy.
- $175,000 placed into a trust fund to secure the girls’ education and future stability.
In a statement, Rodgers said: “This goes beyond football or politics. It’s about family, compassion, and being there when people are hurting. Erika and her daughters should know they are not alone in this fight.”
The donation comes as NFL teams prepare to hold moments of silence in Kirk’s memory this weekend, with discussions underway about establishing a legacy fund to secure his children’s long-term future.
A Steelers teammate noted privately: “Aaron has always been vocal about leadership. This time, he let his actions do the talking.”
