Jimmy Fallon pokes fun at Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady
Fallon compared several humorous points, but it wasn’t all fun and games. In two of his comparisons, he took a shot at Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady as well. Fallon said, “PRO? Dr. Dre is performing. CON? He’s the only Dr. Aaron Rodgers trusts.” Steve Higgins added, “He did his own research.” Despite its hilarity, the comment was certainly meant to poke fun at Rodgers.

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers made headlines this season for lying about his vaccinations and spreading false information about vaccines. Furthermore, he stated that he was receiving advice from podcaster Joe Rogan.
The show emcee made a slight ribbing at Tom Brady as well. He said, “PRO? Picking up supplies for your Super Bowl party at Walmart. CON? Seeing Tom Brady working as a greeter.” Higgins added, “Then he takes Walmart to the Super Bowl.” Fallon further said, “You know he’ll be great at that too.” However, this comment was intended more as a joke rather than a dig at Tom Brady.
