Aaron Rodgers took all kind of shots during his appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" on ESPN on Monday.
The 42-year-old NFL quarterback most notably took shots at Dr. Anthony Fauci, who took the fifth during a U.S. Congressional hearing on the COVID-19 pandemic, and ESPN, for its coverage of the Dianna Russini, Mike Vrabel scandal.
“There was another scandal this offseason, too, involving a voter for MVP, for Coach of the Year. How much time did your network spend on that?” he asked McAfee and others, not backing down.
"You have literally an individual that maybe used to work at ESPN, that covers our league at the highest level," Rodgers said. "And there's a major scandal. And it's just like nobody can (expletive) talk about it? What are we even doing here?… if it's effecting certain things, if there's leaks going on, if there's tampering going on. If that person is also an MVP voter and a Coach of the Year voter… that's real life…"
But Rodgers wasn't done taking public shots.

Rodgers made it clear that he's extremely happy in his marriage to his wife, Brittani, who has yet to be fully identified.
However, Rodgers took a clear shot at his famous ex-girlfriends, including Danica Patrick, who are active on social media. Rodgers ripped his ex-girlfriends who feel the need to boast and talk about their relationships online.
The four-time NFL MVP said that he's thankful that his new wife doesn’t ask him to post romantic Instagram messages on her birthday or Valentine’s Day.
“I don’t like doing that (expletive)/ And I never have to do that ever again, thankfully," he declared, taking a clear shot at his exes.
Patrick has taken shots at Rodgers, too
Patrick has accused Rodgers of being "emotionally abusive."
"The breakup with Aaron in 2020," she told Sage Steele during a podcast appearance, when asked to name the most painful moment of her life.
"Because it was sudden, it felt like. It was my life. So like when you live with somebody, it's your whole life," she continued. "And because the nature of the relationship was emotionally abusive, so that wore me down to nothing."
Patrick felt worn down.
"People could never imagine that I would lack … any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am. Everything was torn to bits," Patrick added. "Yeah, he leaves a trail of blood. I don't think I'm saying too much earth-shattering stuff after we — there's been enough out there."
Clearly, both appear to be happier now.
