Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Kimmel have been publicly feuding The Jets quarterback insisted to Joe Rogan people wanted to 'hammer' him DailyMail.com provides all the latest international sports news
Aaron Rodgers has agreed that his comments which appeared to suggest Jimmy Kimmel is on the Jeffrey Epstein list were taken ‘out of context,’ claiming that ‘nobody watched the f***ing clip.’
Rodgers had previously said on the Pat McAfee Show, ‘There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, who are hoping that list doesn’t come out.’
However, the Jets quarterback later denied suggesting Kimmel was on the list, and doubled down in a new interview with Joe Rogan.
Rogan asked Rodgers, ‘So when you were saying that he doesn’t want that list to come out, you weren’t saying that he was on that list?’
‘No,’ Rodgers replied emphatically.
Aaron Rodgers said that ‘nobody watched’ the clip of his comments regarding Jimmy Kimmel
Kimmel launched a blistering attack on the ‘hamster brained’ football player afterwards
Rogan then suggested that a lot of people had seen the clip ‘out of context,’ to which Rodgers said, ‘Nobody watched the f***ing clip. That’s why.
‘They just saw a headline and [were like] ‘oh it’s the anti-vax guy again, let’s hammer him.’
Rodgers explained to Rogan how he initially felt as though Kimmel called him an ‘idiot’ for believing the list even existed, as he attempted to show why he made his much-maligned comment on the McAfee show.
‘He had gone on his show and called me a tinfoil-hat-wearing doofus… I thought he had said that I was an idiot for even thinking that there’s a list out there,’ Rodgers said on the Joe Rogan Experience, noting that Kimmel may have thought he was trying to connect the list to recent UFO disclosures.
Rodgers continued, ‘The list hasn’t been released yet… Nobody’s gone to jail.’
Rodgers missed nearly the entirety of the Jets season after suffering an Achilles tear
‘I said this when I went back on [McAfee’s] show. That’s a big f***ing accusation that I wouldn’t make.
Speaking on the McAfee Show after his initial comment, Rodgers said, ‘I totally understand how serious an allegation of pedophilia would be… so for him to be upset about that, I get it.’
‘I’m not stupid enough to accuse you of that with absolutely zero evidence, concrete evidence,’ Rodgers continued. ‘That’s ridiculous. I’m glad, and I think we can agree on something, is that 1, those crimes are heinous and 2, I’m glad you’re not on the list.’
The Epstein List that Rodgers referred to is a 2015 civil defamation suit brought against Jeffrey Epstein.
The deposition was unveiled publicly for the first time this month and contains the names of many alleged Epstein clients, who are accused of having intercourse with underage girls. Kimmel was not named in the deposition and has maintained his innocence.
