New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has continued to address the fallout from his controversial comments about Jimmy Kimmel on ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ last Tuesday. Rodgers suggested that Kimmel’s name might be exposed when the “Epstein list” is unsealed, a statement that elicited a strong response from the late-night show host.
Kimmel took to social media to respond, calling Rodgers an A-H and threatening legal action while asserting that his name is not on the released documents related to the Epstein case. Despite Rodgers’ earlier claim that he would celebrate when the list was unveiled, Kimmel’s name was not included.
When asked about his previous remarks by reporters on Monday, Rodgers didn’t provide a direct response. Instead, he encouraged them to tune in to ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ to hear his further comments on the matter.

It appears that Rodgers is prolonging the discussion, possibly trying to capitalize on the controversy. However, with Kimmel’s name not on the released list, Rodgers may face challenges in maintaining the narrative.
Ironically, Rodgers has been quoted expressing a desire to eliminate unnecessary issues from the locker room. Some may argue that he should take his own advice and avoid unnecessary controversies.
