Aaron Rodgers is done as a guest on Pat McAfee’s ESPN show for the remainder of the NFL season after falsely suggesting fellow Disney star Jimmy Kimmel could be linked to pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories. McAfee, who has drawn significant scrutiny for allowing the injured New York Jets quarterback to appear on his program and deliver lengthy conspiratorial rants, made the announcement Wednesday on his show. “So ‘Aaron Rodgers Tuesday,’ season four, is done,” McAfee told his audience.“There could be a lot of people that are happy with that. Myself included, to be honest with you. The way it ended, it got real loud.” A person familiar with the matter told CNN that the decision to end Rodgers’ regular Tuesday appearances was due to his recent behavior, not the conclusion of the regular NFL season. A spokesperson for ESPN declined to comment. During the previous two NFL seasons, Rodgers appeared on McAfee’s program as late as March. Rodgers ignited controversy over the last week when he falsely suggested that Jimmy Kimmel, the ABC late-night comedian, might appear in documents linking him to the convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The disgraced financier had an intricate web of powerful friends before dying by suicide in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Rodgers’ remark about Kimmel prompted backlash not only because it was unproven and laced with innuendo but because McAfee permitted him to make the remarks on ESPN. Both ABC and ESPN are owned by Disney.
