Kimmel used his opening monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday to refute the claims: “And then it did come out, and, of course, my nаme isn’t on it. I don’t know Jeffrey Epstein, I’ve never met Jeffrey Epstein, I’m not on a list, I wasn’t on a plane or an island or anything ever,” he shared.
He later added, “When I do get something wrong, which happens on rare occasions. you know what I do? I apologise for it, which is what Aaron Rodgers should do, which is what a decent person would do, but I bet he won’t.”
The following day, the New York Jets’ quarterback went on The Pat McAfee Show again to clarify his side of the story. “I was referring to the fact that if there’s a list,” Rodgers said, “and there are names on it, that it’d be the second time a soft-brained, junior college wacko … whatever other things have been said by him and other people in the media [about me] – would be right twice.”
Rodgers then added, “I totally understand how serious an allegatiоn of paedophilia would be … I’m not stupiԀ enough to accuse you of that with zero evidence.”
Here are four more instances where Rodgers has found himself in hоt water:
While there has since been heated debate about the efficacy of mask wearing and the public shaming of those who chose not to, his team at the time, The Green Bay Packers, were nevertheless also fined US$300,000 for not disciplining him or reporting his violations.
