ESPN Refuses To Comment On Aaron Rodgers Epstein/Kimmel Comments And His Future On ‘The Pat McAfee Show’
When asked whether the network is reexamining Aaron Rodgers’ future on The Pat McAfee Show after he insinuated that Jimmy Kimmel is an associate of Jeffrey Epstein and that the NFL is rigged, a spokesperson for ESPN declined to comment.
According to Front Office Sports reporter A.J. Perez, a spokesperson for the network refused to give him a comment when he reached out to ask about Rodgers’ future on the show following his controversial comments on Tuesday, January 2.

In a later tweet, Perez then said he “wouldn’t read too much into it” because “ESPN turtles when it comes to these things — it’s in the network’s DNA.”
The network has also yet to release a statement about Rodgers’ comments, which has led to Kimmel threatening litigation.
“That’s [the ‘Epstein list’] supposed to be coming out soon. There’s a lot of people including Jimmy Kimmel that are really hoping that doesn’t come out,” Rodgers said.
Regardless of their refusal to comment on Rodgers’ future on the show, the 40-year-old sentient conspiracy theory ad-lib robot is undoubtedly causing sizeable headaches for the suits at ESPN and Disney, the company that owns the network (along with ABC, where Jimmy Kimmel works).
In addition to insinuating that Kimmel is an associate of deceased criminal sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, Rodgers also suggested that the NFL, ESPN’s #1 cash cow, is rigged, citing a conspiracy about the colors of recent Super Bowl logos.
“If the Super Bowl is Baltimore and San Fran, I’ll tell you what, that Super Bowl 59 emblem better have Jet green on it. I know you’ve seen that one, Connor, that’s a real interesting one,” Rodgers said about the Super Bowl logo conspiracy.
