Aaron Rodgers fires back at ‘ridiculous’ Jimmy Kimmel in Jeffrey Epstein list feud

Aaron Rodgers is over the “ridiculous” Jimmy Kimmel Jeffrey Epstein controversy. During his weekly appearance Tuesday on “The Pat McAfee Show,” the Jets quarterback did not take Kimmel, 56, up on his apology challenge , one week after suggesting the ABC late night host could be named on a list of Epstein associates .

“I’m glad that Jimmy is not on the list, I really am, I don’t think he’s the P word,” Rodgers said. “I think it’s impressive that a man who went to Arizona State and has 10 joke writers can read off a prompter… I wish him the best. Again, I don’t give a s–t what he says about me, but as long as he understands what I actually said, that I’m not accusing him of being on a list, I’m all for moving forward.

“I hope that he will give the same type of energy to these heinous crimes when they do come out that you gave to other subjects that you spent a lot of time working on.” Kimmel, who threatened potential legal action against Rodgers, 40, last Tuesday, mocked the four time league MVP on Monday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and called for an apology.

“When you hear a guy who won a Super Bowl and did all the State Farm commercials say something like this,” Kimmel said in reference to Rodgers’ Epstein comments, “a lot of people believe it. A lot of delusional people honestly believe I am meeting up with Tom Hanks and Oprah at Shakeys once a week to eat pizza and drink the blood of children.

“And I know this because I hear from these people. Often my wife hears from them. My kids hear from them. My poor mailman hears from these people. And now we’re hearing from lots more of them thanks to Aaron Rodgers.” Jimmy’s thoughts on quarterback Karen Rodgers… pic.twitter.com/mRh5VRUycz Rodgers ignited a firestorm of controversy last week on “The Pat McAfee Show” after he referenced Kimmel’s name when discussing court documents containing a list of individuals with ties to the convicted pedophile.

“There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, who are really hoping that doesn’t come out,” Rodgers said at the time. The former Packers quarterback said Monday during his year end availability for the Jets he would address the matter Tuesday. “I’m going to talk about it tomorrow on the show.

Tune in,” Rodgers said . Kimmel, whose beef with Rodgers dates back to 2021, added during Monday’s monologue that he would accept an apology from the Jets star but wasn’t holding his breath. “When I do get something wrong, which happens on rare occasions, you know what I do? I apologize,” Kimmel said.

“Which is what Aaron Rodgers should do, which is what a decent person would do. But I bet he won’t. If he does, you know what I’ll do? I’ll accept his apology and move on. But he probably won’t do that. My guess is he won’t apologize.”.
