The veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers made his much-anticipated debut for the New York Jets last weekend during their final preseason game against the New York Giants. During the game, Rodgers threw his first touchdown in Jets’ uniform with a beautiful fade throw, but before the TD, he got into a fight with the Giants outside linebacker Jihad Ward.
In a video captured by HBO’s Hard Knocks, Rodgers could be seen fighting with Ward. The veteran quarterback took issue with the Giants OLB Ward’s late hit in the preseason game. During the first quarter of the game, Jihad Ward kept rushing and shoved Rodgers after the QB completed a pass to receiver Mecole Hardman.
Rodgers did not like the late hit. He shoved Ward away, and said,“That’s f**king bulls**t bro, “What the f–k is that?” The 10-time Pro Bowler then channeled his inner Thanos to drop an “un-comeback-able” line. “I don’t even know who you are bro. . . I’ve never heard of you,” Rodgers said.
For his part, Ward also repeated the same thing and said that he doesn’t know who Aaron Rodgers is but the quarterback didn’t buy that. Nonetheless, Rodgers then went on to score a touchdown in the same drive. He completed an impressive fade throw to his new favorite receiver Garrett Wilson. After completing the touchdown, Rodgers again went to Ward and said, “Don’t poke the bear, I’ve never heard of you bro.” The officials had to separate Ward and Rodgers.
Rodgers was seemingly so impressed with his one-liners that he shared it with his teammates on the sidelines after the drive. “I threw that ball and he f**king took five steps and pushed me,” Rodgers said to his teammates on the sideline as seen during the episode. “I said, ‘I don’t even know who you are.’ And he said, ‘I don’t know who you are. And I said, ‘Bulls**t.’”
Aaron Rodgers’ alleged girlfriend Mallory Edens was at the MetLife Stadium
The 4-time league MVP Aaron Rodgers made his Jets debut during the preseason last weekend. Many people, including Rodgers’ alleged beau Mallory Edens were at the MetLife Stadium to witness the 39-year-old’s Jets debut.
She shared an Instagram post from the MetLife Stadium with a friend while rocking a NY Jets cap. Rodgers and Mallory were first linked back in January when both of them attended the Milwaukee Bucks game together.
Mallory is the daughter of the NBA franchise Bucks. Rodgers, who played football in Green Bay for the last 18 years is a minority owner of the same franchise. Neither Edens nor Rodgers have publicly addressed the relationship rumors yet.
