Aaron Rodgers Addresses Kimmel Feud: ‘I’m Glad Jimmy Is Not’ on the Epstein List, but ‘I Don’t Give a S— What He Says About Me’

Jordan Moreau Aaron Rodgers has addressed the comments he made about Jimmy Kimmel last week after he suggested that the comedian had connections to Jeffrey Epstein during an appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.” Last week, the New York Jets quarterback discussed the list of Epstein associates that was unsealed in court.

The documents contained the names of people who allegedly had ties to the late sex offender. “There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, really hoping that doesn’t come out,“ Rodgers said on last Tuesday’s episode of “The Pat McAfee Show.” “If that lists comes out, I definitely will be popping some sort of bottle.” After his longstanding, public feud with Kimmel blew up over the past week, Rodgers returned to “The Pat McAfee Show” to address his comments, saying they were blown out of proportion and misconstrued. “I still haven’t popped a bottle because there hasn’t been any list that’s come out,” he said. “I’m glad Jimmy is not on the list.

I really am. I don’t think he’s the P-word.” Kimmel fired back at Rodgers on X last week writing, “Dear Asshole: for the record, I’ve not met, flown with, visited, or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any ‘list’ other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality.
