Aaron Rodgers Believes The Government Created HIV

by

Aaron Rodgers is again planting his conspiracy flag with a new problematic claim from the Star Quarterback. Rodgers has been in the news recently for mostly non-football reasons. He has recently let his desire to be Vice President of the United States known. His Vice President stunt frustrated his current team, the New York Jets. He had to backtrack his remarks on Sandy Hook, clarifying he does, in fact, not believe the tragic event was fake.

Aaron Rodgers spent the entire 2023-2024 NFL season injured after tearing his Achilles in the season opener. Since then, he has been in the news for controversies. He has spewed conspiracy theories in his recovery. Additionally, he constantly gave unrealistic updates on his injury, keeping Jets fans hoping for a miraculous return. There’s been little pushback from his organization and the NFL. Rodgers seems pretty untouchable, so he keeps pushing the envelope and is back at it again with a new conspiracy.

Aaron Rodgers Has A New Conspiracy

On the Look Into It podcast, Aaron Rodgers was in his element and explained some more of his conspiratorial beliefs. Rogers once again went after the former Chief Medical Advisor to the President of the United States, Anthony Fauci. He compared the HIV crisis of the 80s to the COVID pandemic, saying, insinuating the government created both. It’s the kind of rhetoric that is now common for Rodgers and something that’s not going to stop anytime soon. He is well-documented as an individual against the COVID-19 vaccines, which is why he is constantly beefed with Fauci.

There is the question of how much of this the New York Jets and the NFL are willing to take. The Jets have let it be known that they want Rodgers to be committed to the Jets. The Jets feel like they have a chance with a fully healthy Rodgers, possessing one of the best defenses in the NFL. Rogers is on the last legs of his career and has made more waves on podcasts in the past couple of seasons than he has on the field. The Jets hope that isn’t the case in the upcoming season.

Aaron Rodgers Unlikely To Be Named Vice President Nominee: Report

by

Aaron Rodgers appears to be no longer in the running to be the vice presidential candidate of Robert F Kennedy Jr’s independent long-shot campaign. Per Puck, the current front-runner is Nicole Shanahan, a wealthy philanthropist and ex-wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin. “Nicole was the big RFK donor behind the Super Bowl ad. $4 million. But she didn’t just pay for it. She thought of the whole idea. Shanahan has money to finance the campaign. I don’t know her net worth. But she used to be married to one of the richest people in the world! That matters to RFK’s team,” wrote Teddy Scheilfer.

It’s unclear what caused Rodgers to fall out of favor despite being a reported frontrunner. It could be that the Jets were reportedly unhappy that Rodgers was considering the offer. Or it might have something to do with Rodgers having to explicitly state that the Sandy Hook massacre was a “tragedy” this week. However, no candidate will be fully ruled out until Kennedy Jr makes his VP announcement in Oakland later this month.

Travis Kelce Responds To Aaron Rodgers “Mr. Pfizer” Comment

Elsewhere, Travis Kelce didn’t appear too fazed by Aaron Rodgers calling him “Mr. Pfizer” on the Pat McAfee show last year. However, in his response, he did remind Rodgers who signed the anti-vax QB’s paychecks. “I thought it was pretty good. I mean, with the stache, I look like a guy named Mr. Pfizer. Who knew I’d get into the vax wars with Aaron Rodgers, man, Mr. Pfizer vs. the Johnson and Johnson family,” Kelce said. The last comment was a reference to the Jets, Rodgers’ team, being owned by the heir to multinational conglomerate, Johnson & Johnson. Of the many products J&J produces, pharmaceuticals and a one-shot COVID vaccine are some of them.

Rodgers dubbed Kelce “Mr Pfizer” due to Kelce appearing in a series of ads encouraging people to get the new COVID vaccine. “Mr. Pfizer, we kinda shut him down a little bit. He didn’t have a crazy impact game. Obviously, he had some yards and stuff,” Rodgers told McAfee. Kelce had a team-leading 60 yards on six catches against the Jets. The Chiefs scored an ugly 23-20 road win.

Aaron Rodgers Refutes Claims He Believes Sandy Hook Conspiracy Theories

by
Aaron Rodgers Feared to Have Suffered Season-Ending Achilles Injury

With Aaron Rodgers becoming a potential nominee for the United States Vice President on the independent ticket, his record is being called into question.

On CNN, Rodgers’s history of the Sandy Hook tragedy was brought forth. In case you need a reminder, Sandy Hook was a 2012 school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. In the report, an insider said Rodgers echoed conspiracy theories that the children didn’t exist, and it was overall a hoax.

Rodgers was quoted as saying, “They’re all making it up. They’re all actors.”

In response, Aaron Rodgers hit X to state his case: “I am not and have never been of the opinion that the events did not take place. Again, I hope that we learn from this and other tragedies to identify the signs that will allow us to prevent unnecessary loss of life. My thoughts and prayers continue to remain with the families affected along with the entire Sandy Hook community.”

Rodgers is one of the names that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is exploring to run with him in the November election as an independent.

According to the New York Times, former Minnesota governor and professional wrestler Jesse “The Body” Ventura is another name being considered.

According to Kennedy, he and Rodgers have talked “pretty continuously” over the past month. Last week, Kennedy registered a domain, kennedyrodgers.com, on GoDaddy.

Previously, Rodgers stated he would look forward to rejoining the Jets as a quarterback.

Aaron Rodgers Rebukes Sandy Hook Conspiracy Allegations

by

Aaron Rodgers has rebuked a report from CNN alleging that he had advocated that the Sandy Hook shooting was fake. “As I’m on the record saying in the past, what happened in Sandy Hook was an absolute tragedy. I am not and have never been of the opinion that the events did not take place. Again, I hope that we learn from this and other tragedies to identify the signs that will allow us to prevent unnecessary loss of life. My thoughts and prayers continue to remain with the families affected along with the entire Sandy Hook community. ❤,” Rodgers wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

CNN made their allegations against Rodgers during a report on The Lead earlier this week. Rodgers allegedly ranted at CNN reporter Pamela Brown at the 2013 Kentucky Derby about the “evils” of the “news media”. Furthermore, Rodgers allegedly told Brown that he was angry that the “news media” was “ignoring important stories”. This reportedly included “how the Sandy Hook shooting wasn’t real”. Popularized by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, a vocal minority believes that the Sandy Hook shooting was a “false flag” operation to pass stricter gun control laws.

Aaron Rodgers Reportedly Angers New York Jets With Surprise Vice President News

Meanwhile, The New York Jets are reportedly unhappy with Rodgers after it was announced he was the frontrunner to be Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s running mate for President. “It’s absurd to think he could campaign and play simultaneously,” one team source told the Daily Mail. “Lots of the coaches and players want Aaron to commit to the team and worry about winning the Super Bowl over a chance to be in the White House,” added another.

Rodgers is expected to be QB1 for the Jets when the 2024 season kicks off later this year. The team has already granted Zach Wilson permission to seek a trade. Furthermore, they recently signed Tyrod Taylor to back up Rodgers. Rodgers is reportedly being considered by Kennedy alongside former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura. Keendy is mounting a long-shot independent bid after withdrawing a long-shot bid against Joe Biden in the Democratic Primary. Kennedy Jr is a noted anti-vaxer and nephew of JFK. However, he has never held political office.

However, this is far from the only conspiracy Rodgers allegedly believes in, or as has admitted to believing in. While he is best known for his anti-vax and alternative medicine stances, that is really just the tip of the iceberg for the Jets QB. At least one former teammate of Rodgers’ has gone on record saying that Rodgers would promote 9/11 conspiracies in the Packers locker room.

Aaron Rodgers Receives Jets Players’ “Most Inspirational” End-Of-Season Award

Elsewhere, Rodgers received the Jets’ “Most Inspirational Player” award last season. The award was voted on by the other players. “I’ve said it a million times: He loves his teammates, and his teammates love him. He’s so intentional with how he approaches everybody in the building. He’s very thoughtful in the way he does things, and he’s a tremendous human. Aaron is really well deserving of this award,” head coach Robert Salah said.

Not only is Rodgers seen as an “ideal” teammate, but his expedited return from a torn Achilles served as motivation for the rest of the team. While Rodgers would ultimately admit he was not ready to play again, his return to practice just two-and-a-half months after undergoing surgery to repair his torn Achilles was nothing short of miraculous. Despite this, Rodgers maintained that he would return to play for the team if they were still playoff contenders.

Vice President Aaron Rodgers? One 2024 Candidate Might Make It A Reality

by

Robert F. Kennedy Jr has revealed that New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is on his shortlist of Vice President nominees. The controversial Democrat, and nephew of JFK, has launched an independent presidential bid after failing to mount a challenge against Joe Biden. Rodgers’ name is near the top of a list that also includes former Minnesota Governor, and WWE legend, Jesse Ventura. RFK Jr and Rodgers reportedly “speak frequently” and hold very similar anti-vaccine beliefs.

Of course, being nominated as a vice-presidential candidate could deal Rodgers’ return to the NFL. While Kennedy is a long-shot candidate, it would be expected that Rodgers would appear on the campaign trail. That might put him at odds with the Jets, who are expecting him to be QB1 come the fall. Rodgers has never spoken publicly about running for office. Jets owner Woody Johnson is a major donor for Donald Trump and previously served as Trump’s ambassador to the United Kingdom.

Aaron Rodgers Quietly Removed From The Pat McAfee Show

However, Rodgers has already cemented himself as something of a controversial character. Earlier this year, Rodgers was quietly removed from his weekly spot on The Pat McAfee Show. The news came after Rodgers pointedly refused to apologize to Jimmy Kimmel. Rodgers, who had implied that Kimmel did not want the list of people who had traveled to Jeffrey Epstein’s island to be made public, argued that he never actually made any specific assertions about Kimmel. Per The Athletic, the decision to remove Rodgers was made by McAfee and not mandated by ESPN.

After Rodgers’ initial comments, McAfee tried to clear the air between the long-time rivals. While discussing Rodgers’ claims about Jimmy Kimmel, McAfee said that Rodgers’ comments were “certainly probably just a sh-t talk joke” and that everyone involved should just move on. However, McAfee did note that he understood why Kimmel had reacted so heatedly. Kimmel took further aim at Rodgers this week, dedicating his January 8 monologue to roasting the sidelined quarterback.

Caleb Williams Compares Himself To Aaron Rodgers, Haters Tear Him Apart

by

Caleb Williams, the frontrunner for the No. 1 pick in next month’s NFL Draft, has faced a wave of hate after comparing himself to Aaron Rodgers. Williams had made the comparison, namely about his height and weight, at the NFL Combine. However, haters online quickly jumped on him to manipulate his comments. “I compare myself to Aaron Rodgers off the field. I’m a selfish, cocky pr-ck just like him. On the field, I’m like Zach Wilson. I play really well vs poor competition but struggle vs good defenses like Notre Dame,” one wrote X account labeled as a Justin Fields fan account.

Chicago currently holds the first overall pick. However, pundits are split on what the team will do with it. Some believe Chicago will draft Williams, others believe they will keep the aforementioned Fields and build around him. However, there are also those who still see Chicago as going the Philly route and trading back to acquire draft capital. However, the potential to move on from Fields has already soured many fans against Williams.

Jets Grant Zach Wilson Permission To Seek Trade

Furthermore, speaking of Aaron Rodgers, it is expected that he will have a new backup in New York next season. The Jets have granted embattled QB Zach Wilson permission to seek a trade. It’s a move that has been expected since the team owner said that the team “didn’t have a backup quarterback” last season. The team will work closely with Wilson’s agent to try and move the former second-overall pick. It is widely expected that Wilson, who has never settled in the NFL, will garner a late-round pick at most.

However, the Jets are eager to find a quality backup for Aaron Rodgers. “We’re still really early in the offseason, especially when it comes to the veteran backup landscape and market. We’ve had good meetings and good evaluations with the guys that are available, and I think we’re ready to take the next step and see where the market is exactly with these backup quarterbacks,” GM Joe Douglas said this week.

Aaron Rodgers On Jimmy Kimmel: “I Don’t Think He’s A P-Word”

by

Jimmy Kimmel was happy to address Aaron Rodgers in a scathing rant on the latest episode of his late-night show, but rather than clapping back, the NFL star’s response makes it sound as though he’s ready to put their feud to rest. In his opening monologue on Monday (January 8), the TV personality gave the audience an ear-full about his nemesis, who he believes is obviously guilty of defamation. Kimmel insinuated that Rodgers was planning on popping bottles if his name came out along with the controversial Jeffrey Epstein documents. The former says he’s never met the embattled financier and dares “Karen Rodgers” to share any incriminating evidence in court.

Though Kimmel also asked for an apology, the quarterback doesn’t seem ready to give it. However, he did have a few words for the host that better clarified his stance on the 56-year-old’s alleged connection to Epstein. “I was referring to the fact that if there’s a list,” Rodgers said on a new episode of The Pat McAfee Show, “and there are names on it, that it’d be the second time a soft-brained, junior college wacko… Whatever other things have been said by him and other people in the media – would be right twice.”

“I totally understand how serious an allegation of pedophilia would be… I’m not [ignorant] enough to accuse you of that with zero evidence,” the California native continued before throwing in a few digs at Kimmel’s intelligence. From the sounds of things, Rodgers is about ready to put the spat behind him and move on with his life.

Athlete is Over the Drama

“I think it’s impressive that a man who went to Arizona State and has joke writers can read off a prompter,” Aaron Rodgers further responded to Kimmel. “I wish him the best, I don’t give a s*** what he says about me. I’m not accusing him of being on the list.” Check out the athlete’s full statement above and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
