Aaron Rodgers is known for his impressive football skills, but in the last few years, he has also explored some insane conspiracy theories.
There has been so much going on in the United States that not many people have been paying attention to what is happening in New Jersey.
Residents of more than a dozen counties across New Jersey have reported seeing large, low-flying objects hovering in sky in recent weeks and no one has a clue who is in control of them. It has gotten so bad that the FBI is investigating.
New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers lives in New Jersey and has noticed the drones.
He brought it up during his latest appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.”
“Do you know what’s been going on in Jersey lately? And I’m not talking about the football, not talking about the football,” Rodgers stated as he made it clear he is not talking about the Jets’ terrible 2024 season.
“There’s been some crazy things going on. There are some drones in the sky,” Aaron Rodgers said during a recent appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.”

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy has since stated that the drones circling the skies above his state are “very sophisticated,” noting that “the minute you get your eyes on them, they go dark.”
He promised that the devices are not a threat to public safety, even though no one knows what they are doing in the area.
Murphy added that the drones are very high-tech, which makes it hard for authorities to track them and determine their origin.
On the Pat McAfee show, a video of a drone in Bedminster, New Jersey, prompted Aaron Rodgers to ask, “What the hell is that?”
He noted that the drone in the video is “large” and that he doesn’t know what is happening with the drones.
“There is other videos that I’ve seen, and I’ve talked to some friends of mine that are police officers — shoutout Mario. There’s some interesting things going on. Interesting things with the drones. I don’t know what’s going on with them. Maybe it’s just some kids messing around, maybe not though,” Rodgers said.
Aaron Rodgers didn’t rule out aliens.
“I’m thinking about having a Friday night 5-E experience,” Rodgers said. If you don’t know what that is, don’t worry, he explained.
“It’s where you have a big kind of meditation circle and then you call in the aliens and you use little green lasers to bring them in,” Rodgers said. “So thinking Friday night, if it’s a nice night, clear night, having a little 5-E experience to bring ’em in.”
The Jets quarterback just wants answers about what the drones are being used for.
“They need to tell us what’s going on. It’s military or not military, UAP, or whatever the hell it is. But there’s people in Jersey, it’s people interested on what the hell is going on with these drones.”
Aaron Rodgers Might Not Have To Worry About Drones In New Jersey In 2025
Could the Aaron Rodgers era in New York end after just two seasons?
Rodgers’s time as the New York Jets’ starting quarterback may be coming to an end, as the hype around his trade there has never materialized.
Regardless of whether the Jets keep Rodgers on the roster next season or not, the team is likely to draft a quarterback.
At 3-9, the Jets would have the No. 6 pick if the season ended today.
Aaron Rodgers Throws Shade At Jets Owner Woody Johnson As Public Feud Intensifies

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers seemingly took another big-time shot at owner Woody Johnson as their beef intensifies.
It’s no secret that Aaron Rodgers and Woody Johnson haven’t seen eye-to-eye amid a drama-filled 2024 Jets season. It’s been reported that Johnson recently pushed for the idea of the Jets benching Rodgers, with other whispers stating the four-time MVP wants to play elsewhere.
If Rodgers wants to cool down rumors that the relationship between him and Johnson is just fine, let’s just say the future Hall of Famer isn’t holding up his end of the bargain.
One day after making comments on “The Pat McAfee Show” about the importance of ownership publicly “backing” its general manager and head coach, Rodgers threw further shade at Johnson in his presser on Wednesday.
Per The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt, Aaron Rodgers offered the following explanation when asked if he feels as though Jets ownership has offered the support of the head coach and GM:
“Is that a rhetorical question? I cited an example I’ve seen. There were other examples in Green Bay, both for and maybe not as for whoever was in charge. But I think it’s an important part of ownership to hire the right guys, set the vision and support them when the outside world is trying to tear them down.”

Pressed further on the question, Rodgers again passed on the opportunity to give Johnson a thumbs up:
“I’d have to look,” Rodgers said. “I’ll ask you guys, has there been a lot of public comments? Supportive comments?”
The Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh after a close Week 5 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London. Six weeks later, GM Joe Douglas was let go after just under five years at the helm. Jeff Ulbrich was named the interim HC after Saleh was let go.
Aaron Rodgers May Benefit From A Fresh Start In 2025
Rodgers’ numbers haven’t been that bad this year (a 62.5 completion percentage for 2,627 yards, 19 touchdowns and eight interceptions), so it’s unfair to put all the blame on him in Gotham.
That said, it’s evident that the Jets and Rodgers would benefit from a split in the offseason. This team needs to draft and develop a young quarterback, and A-Rod needs to go to a non-dysfunctional team that will give him the right coaching staff and front office management to maximize his talents.
