Late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel has criticized NFL quarterback Aaron after suggesting that Kimmel's name may be on convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's list of associates. He lashed out at Rogers.
During a guest appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Mr. Rogers was asked by one of the hosts if he had been sitting in the wine cellar waiting to celebrate the announcement of the associate list. I made a comment like this.
“A lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, really hope they never find out,” Rodgers joked, drawing laughs from the show's hosts.
McAfee said Kimmel used the clip from his show to poke fun at Rogers about the Epstein list that a judge ordered him to release.
“I'm telling you, when that list comes out, I'm definitely going to open some bottles!” Rogers continued.
Kimmel responded in a social media post on Tuesday.
“Dear A***hole, For the record, I have never met Epstein, never flown with him, never visited him, never had any contact with him. You won't find my name on any “list” other than bogus nonsense. Soft-headed weirdos like you can’t seem to distinguish reality from reality,” Kimmel wrote.
“Your reckless statements put my family at risk. Please continue. We will further argue the facts in court,” he added.
The 40-year-old quarterback has been criticized by many on the left after publicly criticizing the NFL for its response to coronavirus lockdowns and its skeptical stance toward vaccines.
When Rodgers was traded to the New York Jets before the start of the 2023 season, he was heralded as a player who could live up to Super Bowl expectations. He was injured in the first game of his first series and was knocked out for the rest of the season, disappointing the team and fans.
The team has missed the playoffs for 13 consecutive seasons, the longest streak. active drought This applies not only to the NFL, but to any team in the NBA, NHL, or MLB.
