NY Jets’ latest demand explains why team moved on from Aaron Rodgers

There’s a very specific person who’s going to enjoy this blog, and I’d like them to know that it’s 1000% dedicated to them. That specific person may be a Packers fan – but also may not be! – and gets extremely tired of a certain very loud, very confusing midday ESPN show. And given how many clips this person has seen of said very loud, very confusing midday ESPN show, this person also wonders if anything matters at all anymore.

Turns out: kinda! Now that the Jets are officially moving on from Aaron Rodgers, they are – in very NY Jets fashion – leaking stories like there’s no tomorrow. The latest one, which originated on Dianna Russini’s podcast and was picked up by Awful Announcing (aggregation!), talks about how one of the reasons why the team decided to move on from Rodgers was his insistence on going on Pat McAfee’s show.


NY Jets apparently got tired of Aaron Rodgers going on Pat McAfee’s show

“Russini reported on her podcast Scoop City this week that when new Jets head coach Aaron Glenn and GM Darren Mougey met with Aaron Rodgers after the season, they drew a hard line. If Rodgers were to return, he not only would need to participate in all offseason team activities, but also stop going on The Pat McAfee Show.”

Imagine being a professional football player and being told your job depends, essentially, on no longer going on a podcast. I could not love this story any more than I do. Is it fair to Rodgers? Probably not. But nothing Rodgers has done/said in the last two years has been fair to anyone at all, so let’s call it even. Who will talk about Ayn Rand now?! Who will bring up wildly inflammatory speculation while AJ Hawk – who’s definitely, totally listening – nods in approval? The sports content world has lost its greatest and most annoying idol.

I think that there are about 10,000 football reasons why the Jets chose to move on from Rodgers that probably take priority over no longer talking with Pat McAfee, but none of those matter now. What matters is that a certain person finally gets to feel the sweet release of vindication after two miserable years of blogging the dopiest quotes on the planet. Cheers to them.
