RFK Jr. Makes a Surprising Admission Amid Rumors of Aaron Rodgers in the Running for Vice President

Over the past couple of months, President Biden and his predecessor, Trump, have hogged the spotlight in U.S. politics. And now there’s a new entrant to the scenes. And he’s not from the world of politics at all. If anything, Aaron Rodgers is from the sports world. The Jets have been waiting for him to recover. But now, could the 4x NFL MVP have other ambitions?

In the midst of all this, Robert F. Kennedy is charting his course toward the presidency as an independent. He’s been testing the idea of various VP picks. Could A-Rod be his future running mate?

RFK drops a crucial hint regarding Aaron Rodgers

Rodgers currently has no qualifications for holding any public office, much less the vice presidency. But he has been in the news lately as being in the running for VP. However, RFK Jr. has recently made it clear that it’s not going to be Rodgers for his VP without even mentioning his name. In a rally, he told his supporters, “It’s not anyone people have been talking about.”

TheJetPress said on X, “That would presumably rule out Aaron Rodgers.” Rodgers, in the past, had shown his support for him on social media. He had retweeted one of RFK Jr.’s poll promises with the caption, “⚔️”.

Rodgers’ own team is also not ready to believe these rumors and has continued fortifying themselves for the 2024 season.

Jets have trouble buying into speculation

Over the weekend, Pro Football Talk said that the Jets aren’t going to believe that Rodgers will make a move into politics. They mentioned that the seasoned 40-year-old quarterback hasn’t yet clued in the team about his plans and seems to have dropped off the radar this past week. It all started on Tuesday, when word broke that Rogers and Jesse Ventura were in the running to be Kennedy’s sidekicks. Kennedy will be unveiling his choice on March 26 in Oakland, California.

This news had stirred up quite the storm and A-Rod decided to not present his take on the whole situation. Jets’ own Sauce Gardner quipped, “that’s why he ain’t been answering my text messages”. This whole episode adds another layer of intrigue to the Jets’ offseason plans. They’re not wasting any time this offseason, having brought in talents like Morgan Moses and Tyron Smith, both stars in their own right, plus Tyrod Taylor to bolster the squad.

They seem to be all set to shake off last year’s less-than-stellar 7-10 finish and aim higher.
