It’s not all that surprising Rodgers is mentioned, considering he’s dipped his toe into political waters. While he was running for president, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. asked Rodgers if he wanted to be his running mate.
“I said, ‘Are you serious? I’m a f****** football player,'” Rodgers recalled to Tucker Carlson earlier this year, via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Despite his initial surprise, Rodgers admitted to considering the offer.
“Oh yeah, I thought about it,” said Rodgers. “Definitely thought about it because I love Bobby and I just wanted to hear what he had to say about it.”

Kennedy later withdrew from the race and endorsed Trump.
Rodgers has established himself as a political voice in recent years, particularly through his outspoken criticism of COVID-19 vaccine mandates and Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
