Aaron Rodgers recently made headlines once again when he called out the New York Jets organization for how they handled his release. While he specifically stated that he flew across the country to talk to the Jets, details are coming out that he may have fabricated the entire story.
“Lied About Everything” Aaron Rodgers Was Just Exposed For Entire Jets Interaction (Report)
According to Mike Fisher of Athon Sports:
The only problem with Rodgers’ account of how the session came together?
It isn’t true.
“That was an interesting two years to say the least,” Rodgers said. “I figured that when I flew across country on my dime there would be a conversation. The confusing thing to me is I went out there, I meet with the coach, we start talking, he runs out of the room. I’m like ‘that’s kind of strange.’ …
“So we sit down in the office and I think we’re going to have this long conversation – I’ve flown across the country – and 20 seconds in and he goes, ‘So do you wanna play football? And I’m like, ‘yeah I’m interested.’
“And he said “we’re going in a different direction at quarterback.’”
We do believe there was a meeting. We do believe that Glenn showed Rodgers the door.
But now, increasingly, we don’t believe the foundation of Rodgers’ sob story.
From the very reliable Tom Pelissero …
“What I was told at the time was that Aaron had indicated to them, ‘Hey, I’m gonna be on that side of the country in this week,’ and they said, ‘Great, come into the building,'” Pelissero reported.
But why did Rodgers – at least three times during his ESPN visit – mention prominently the claim, “I flew across the country to have a face-to-face meeting with you”?
Because, as our NFL insider Mike Fisher puts it bluntly: “The narcissist is often a liar. Rodgers has always been the former. Now we know he’s a liar.”
Fisher also accuses the four-time NFL MVP of being a “hypocrite.”
“Rodgers is once again exposing himself as a hypocrite,” Fish said. “When he came to New York, he announced he would unselfishly be in charge of ending all of the ‘media leaks’ in the building.
“The truth? He can’t help himself. He was in a closed-door, private meeting with a coach. And he just went on TV to announce – to ‘leak’ – every single thing that happened in that meeting. If you’re his next coach, how do you trust him?
“And then, in the end, based on Pelissero’s note, his ‘leak’ isn’t even true?’ The only thing Rodgers said that was true – because he damn sure isn’t offering to play for all of these teams for $10 million as he claims – is the summation of his two years in New York.
“He called it a debacle.” He told one truth.”
Fans immediately reacted to this news:
“At this point anything Rodgers claims I take with a grain of salt. I wouldn’t want his toxicity on my team.”
“It was definitely time to move on & make this about the NYJ and not how can we accommodate AR and the constant distractions about him!! Good Riddance AR”
“Rodgers was mad the Jets broke up with him and he didn’t control the narrative.”
“For those who think Glenn & Co are already off to a poor start please listen. Rodgers does not deserve the special treatment he thinks he does.”
“Basically it’s what I said yesterday Rodgers had a hissy fit cuz he got cut, he was unhappy about another team not wanting goes on a podcast & plays the victim game by blaming everyone else but himself. And people wanna blame Glenn instead”
