On March 8, Aaron Rodgers reshared a tweet from Robert F. Kennedy, saying, “This is presidential,” with the hashtags “Kennedy24” and “RFK.” This grabbed fans’ attention on his possibly joining as the running mate. However, as he hasn’t made any public statements about it, the two have been reported to be connected for a few months now.
Furthermore, as per reports, the two are said to be aligned in their views against vaccines during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite Rodgers recovering from a season-ending Achilles injury in 2023 and preparing to start the 2024 NFL season with the Jets, he may face a scheduling conflict if he joins a presidential campaign, as it would coincide with the start of the NFL season.
