Aaron Rodgers went on on Wednesday to discu s some of the rumors that had been reported about his future.Rodgers didn't exactly deny many of them. He even said that he plans
E'Twaun Moore Jersey to play for the New York Jets in 2023.But he also used his se sion on McAfee's show to take a shot at a couple of ESPN's NFL reporters, Adam Schefter and Dianna Ru sini.It all started when McAfee asked Rodgers whether he had heard the rumor that he had asked the Jets to target a few specific free agents, including Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb, Marcedes Lewis and Odell Beckham Jr.MORE:Rodgers denied those claims, citing them as "ridiculous." Then, he took shots at Schefter and Ru sini for contacting him to discu s those rumors."Ask Schefter what I texted him when he somehow got my number and texted me," Rodgers quipped.He would go on to say that he didn't respond to Ru sini because he didn't know her that well. But he made his me sage to her clear."I would say the same thing that I told Schefty," Rodgers said. "Lose my number. Nice try. I'll speak for myself."MORE:"I'm sure
Dan Majerle Jersey there'll be people that have their sources," Rodgers continued. "But you know, from what I've seen, it's like I had a sheet of paper when I met with the Jets, and I said, 'Sign these people.' And that's not the reality. That's so ridiculous."Naturally, many were amused by the beef between Rodgers and the ESPN talents. While Ru sini has remained mum about it so far, Schefter has not. He almost immediately acknowledged that Rodgers had, in fact, told him to lose the number.Confirming Aaron Rodgers report: Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) That tweet quickly went viral, and Schefter enjoyed basking in the glow from his escapades. He even quote-tweeted a hastily made t-shirt of himself, Rodgers and the now-infamous one-liner
Jevon Carter Jersey .Where these available? Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) Of course, it's worth noting that both Schefter and Ru sini were just doing their jobs in attempting to corroborate the rumors surrounding Rodgers.It's also a bit comical that Rodgers was so annoyed by their characterization of his talks with the Jets. Why? Because he admitted that he was vouching for some of his former teammates when asked about them."It's so stupid to think that I would do it, No. 1," Rodgers said of demanding the Jets sign certain free agents. "Now, did they ask me about certain guys I played with over the years? Of course. Did I talk glowingly about teammates that I love? Yeah."MORE:Sure, maybe
Ricky Rubio Jersey speaking well of guys like Lazard, "Big Dog" and "Cobby" doesn't cla sify as a demand or even a request that they are signed.But after a certain point, it's just a semantics debate.What is true is that Rodgers spoke glowingly of Lazard; he said "who wouldn't want to have Odell on their team?" during his interview with McAfee; and the Packers once re-acquired Cobb via trade from the Texans in an effort to appease the quarterback amid tension between the two sides.If Rodgers wanted to clarify that he was just supporting his former teammates and players that he admires, he could have done
Ty Jerome Jersey that. He chose not to, and that's what led Schefter and Ru sini to confirm their reports elsewhere.
