Aaron Rodgers is caught in DISGUSTING act during Jets’ loss to Steelers: ‘It’s his third pick of the game!’.
There have been many low points for the New York Jets over the years. The Butt Fumble and Bill Belichick’s defection to the rival New England Patriots stand out, although anything after the team’s Super Bowl III upset of the Baltimore Colts in 1969 deserves consideration.
But while falling to 2-5 with Sunday night’s 37-15 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, quarterback Aaron Rodgers found a new way to crystalize the embarrassment of Jets fans.
‘Jets season is going up in flames and Aaron Rodgers is on the sideline eating his boogers,’ one fan wrote on social media after NBC cameras appeared to show the four-time MVP doing exactly that.
Sunday night was bad enough for Rodgers, who was reunited with former Packers teammate Davante Adams only to connect with the All-Pro receiver on just 3 of 9 targets. And then there were Rodgers’ two interceptions on the night, which only gave fans more ammunition online.
Referring to the footage of Rodgers tending to his nostrils, one fan remarked it was his ‘third pick of the game.’
Others preferred to attack Rodgers for proudly refusing to take any COVID-19 vaccine.
‘Vaxxed?’ wrote one.
‘Ivermectin side effects,’ stated another.
Lastly, one fan simply chided Rodgers for ingesting empty calories.
‘Yikes,’ he wrote. ‘No nutritional value in those.’
Things were so bad for Rodgers that fans began longing for Zach Wilson, the former first-round pick who flamed out with the Jets before resurfacing as a backup in Denver this year. A year ago, with Wilson filling in for the injured Rodgers, the Jets were 4-3. Now they’re just 2-5 and fans are bracing for another rebuild.
‘Someone needs to inoculate America from having to watch this washed up conspiracy-hound, fake smart guy QB and his horses*** offense on national TV all the time,’ long-time NFL columnist Jason La Canfora wrote on X.
I wish I was immune to their garbage offense. Is there a shot for that? Who is Rodgers gonna blame for this s***show?’
Afterwards, Rodgers took a dig at the media for doubting the Jets.
When asked how to keep the belief alive in the team’s locker room, Rodgers said players need to ‘stop listening to you guys, number one.’
Rodgers added: ‘Just got to win, starting this week.’
The Jets travel to Foxborough on Sunday to face the 1-6 Patriots – the only team below New York in the AFC East standings. Rodgers and the Jets previously dominated the Patriots, 24-3, in East Rutherford, New Jersey on September 19.
