Notably, Rodgers is one of the most popular and regular guests on McAfee’s show. When he asked Rodgers about the current situation with LaFleur, the 38-year-old quarterback said, “I haven’t talked to him… So I have no idea if he being an angry off right now or if he’s in good mood. Mattie (Matt LaFleur) and I talk all the time, and last week we really had a cool moment, conversation back and forth and there was a lot of gratitude shared.“

“I was pissed about the calls, I answered honestly and I mean, he was pissed about it too. He actually followed after my press conference and he has been watching. So he had seen what I said, he made a little barb, as I was walking out of it, the green room. We had a couple of laughs, then I told him how much he meant to me, our conversation from Friday, we hugged it out and that was that,” Rodgers further clarified.
