The former NFL player recently had his chance to fire back at the New York Jets quarterback and his hypocritical stance for criticizing sports analysts while doing the same thing on “The Pat McAfee Show.”

The 41-year-old Aaron Rodgers didn’t name names when he ripped ESPN for transforming into a bounty of “unfounded or asinine” takes, but his “both non-former players and former players who are trying to stay relevant fame-wise.”

Rodgers clarified that he was not speaking about McAfee but about any number of people who may appear elsewhere on the network.

Clark is one of those people, and he wasn’t nice about his response as he did not mince a single word in response to him.

“I find it extremely funny that he’s saying this on a show with a man, who as great as he was as a punter, is far more famous as a pundit in Pat McAfee,” Clark said.

“A.J. Hawk, who I felt like was a good player, is now on TV, and he gets to give his thoughts as well. Actually, Aaron Rodgers, you’re being paid to be on that show to give your thoughts and opinions as a personality.

“And don’t get me wrong, he is not just to me a first ballot Hall of Famer, he is one of the best and most talented quarterbacks to ever play this game — and he ain’t no more. And his problem is, is that people are willing to say it. Are people not supposed to be able to do their jobs and do their jobs in an unbiased way and be honest about who you are as a player, because you feel like you had a better career than them?”

“And for you to sit up there and say that there are these people who feel like they have now become the celebrity, or they have now become the superstar, or the SportsCenter of old is gone — yeah, bruh, because time’s changed,” Clark continued. “The reason that they’re paying you a million dollars or whatever it is to be on Pat McAfee is you had a great career, and people are going to listen to your opinions. Which people listen to my opinion, people listen to Cam Newton’s opinion, people listen to Stephen A. [Smith’s] opinion because those opinion(s) are informed.

“And so, my biggest problem with Aaron Rodgers, because, to me, I’m actually not upset about what he’s saying because I ain’t no hit dog; you know a hit dog will holler. My issue with him is you’re doing the exact same thing. And the reason you’re getting this opportunity to say these asinine things is because someone is paying you who is exactly the same thing that you’re now speaking out against.”

“This dude is once again tone-deaf,” Clark added. “This dude is once again unaware. This dude is once again arrogant to a point that’s almost sickening because he says these things, and he talks tough, and he behaves in his way, but he ain’t. He has all of this cache because he’s a good player, but they ain’t people around here that come around and talk about what type of leader you are. They ain’t people that come around here that talk about wanting to follow you because of the type of man you have been.

“This dude is a fraud. He’s been a fraud. He can throw a football, and that’s where it stops. Once that talent ends, so does him — and so does he. And to sit up there, man, and to be just blatantly hypocritical is funny and sickening at the same time.”

The Biggest News Aaron Rodgers Has Made In 2024 Has Come From His Mouth And Not His Play On The Field

The New York Jets traded for Aaron Rodgers in hopes of seeing him lead the franchise to the promised land.

If not the Super Bowl, then at least to the playoffs.

Neither has come close to happening.

In fact, the biggest moments from Aaron Rodgers’ time as a New York Jet has come out of his mouth when speaking on the Pat McAfee Show.

The Jets are third in the AFC East with a 3-10 record and will most certainly finish with a high draft pick.

In 13 games this season, Rodgers has thrown for 2,966 yards and 20 touchdowns to 8 interceptions on 63.1% passing.

Aaron Rodgers Unleashes His Own Insane Theory About The Mystery Drones In New Jersey That Have Everyone In America Spooked

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.”

NEWS: AARON RODGERS DEMANDS GOVERNMENT ANSWERS ABOUT DRONES FLYING OVER HIS HOME.

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.
