The New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers recently faced widespread backlash after making a controversial joke on Jimmy Kimmel. Rodgers referenced Kimmel and Jeffrey Epstein, subsequently dismissing it as humor. Undoubtedly, this sparked a global controversy. It drew attention from various quarters, including the NFL. In a retaliatory move, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” also uploaded a video that effectively turned the tables on Rodgers.

The video is a comprehensive seven-minute roast. It became a sensation as it positioned Rodgers as the target of public ridicule while aiming to dispel the misconceptions stirred by his remarks. Now, the NFL decided not to stay quiet on the situation. The league’s perspective was also further illuminated by MLFootball. They shared a clip underscoring the league’s stance.

Jimmy Kimmel targeted Rodgers’ educational background

In a recent episode of his late-night show, Jimmy Kimmel sharply criticized NFL QB Aaron Rodgers. He criticised Rodgers for his self-proclaimed expertise in immunology, despite having a background in community college. He also mentioned the fact that Rodgers didn’t complete his degree at Cal.

Kimmel’s biting remarks were captured in a tweet by MLFootball. They shared a video of the segment. Kimmel’s pointed humor was evident when he said, “A guy who went to community college, then got into Cal on a football scholarship, and didn’t graduate. Someone who never spent a minute studying the human body, is an expert in the field of immunology.”

He further criticised Rodgers, saying, “Aaron Rodgers got two A’s on his report card, and they were both in the word, ‘Aaron’.” His statements did not sit well with MLFootball. They went ahead and captioned, “DISGUSTING: Jimmy Kimmel RIPS Aaron Rodgers for going to Community College.” However, this wasn’t the opinion of Kimmel himself, instead, his opinion is a stark contrast.

Kimmel considers legal action against Rodgers

The tension between Rodgers and Kimmel escalates after Rodgers’ remarks linking Kimmel to the late Jeffrey Epstein. Kimmel vehemently denied any association with it. He stated in an X post, “I have never met, flown with, visited, or had any contacts whatsoever with Epstein.”

He also mentioned that he is considering legal action against the quarterback. This controversy follows an incident in March 2023, where Kimmel mocked Rodgers on the “Pat McAfee Show”. He mocked him for discussing the “Epstein list and UFOs” and he referred to him as a “tin-foil hatter.”
