Aaron Rodgers, formerly of the Green Bay Packers and New York Jets, has become almost as well known for his controversial opinions and beliefs as he is for his stellar play on the field. Ever since 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic, Rodgers has become more and more outspoken regarding various conspiracy theories.
For example, in March of 2024, Rodgers expressed his belief in the Tartaria conspiracy, which states that an ancient race of giants developed the ideas for modern architecture, and the rich elite are slowly releasing these ideas to the general public in an effort to make billions of dollars off of them.
“It’s very interesting stuff. “What is actually true that we’ve been told and what is a lie. They go, ‘Why does that f***ing matter?’ Because if they can lie about that, what else can they lie about?
“For me it’s the cover-up of giants, the cover-up of our true history. It’s basically stolen technology that’s being sold back to us little by little… like the puppets we are.”
Aaron Rodgers Has a Questionable History in Regard to the Sandy Hook Disaster
Early in 2024, Rodgers was floated as a potential Vice Presidential running mate for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. This development led to a plethora of reports of the four-time NFL MVP’s unconventional beliefs.
One of these reports claimed that in 2013, during his time with the Packers, Rodgers made a comment about the Sandy Hook shooting, which killed 20 children and six teachers, being a government job.
Per a report by Pamela Brown of CNN, who met Rodgers at the 2013 Kentucky Derby, “Hearing that she was a journalist with CNN, Rodgers immediately began attacking the news media for covering up important stories. Rodgers brought up the tragic killing of 20 children and 6 adults by a gunman at Sandy Hook Elementary School, claiming it was actually a government inside job and the media was intentionally ignoring it.
“When Brown questioned him on the evidence to show this very real shooting was staged, Rodgers began sharing various theories that have been disproven numerous times. Such conspiracy theories were also later at the center of lawsuits brought by victims’ families when they sued conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on the matter.”
Of the report cited above, Rodgers posted on X, “As I’m on the record saying in the past, what happened in Sandy Hook was an absolute tragedy. I am not and have never been of the opinion that the events did not take place. Again, I hope that we learn from this and other tragedies to identify the signs that will allow us to prevent unnecessary loss of life. My thoughts and prayers continue to remain with the families affected along with the entire Sandy Hook community.”

While Rodgers may not publicly deny that people did indeed die at Sandy Hook, he certainly seems to think that there is some kind of conspiracy involved.
During his most recent appearance on the “Joe Rogan Experience,” Rodgers stated his belief that well-known conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who was ordered to pay $1.1 billion after being sued by victims’ families, was fed false information by people looking to take him down.
“He’s been right so many times you gotta shut him up,” Rodgers said of his belief that the media fed Jones false videos and stories in an effort to ruin him.
Rogan agreed, stating his belief that it was easy for Jones to fall for the media’s trick because the government, according to him, has hired crisis actors before to draw attention off of itself for a project that “went sideways.”
