Aaron Rodgers Says Jets Debut Went From One Of The Best Days To One Of The Darkest, Hints At RETURN? 

Props to Rodgers for being open & vulnerable about his experience. Hoping for the best for him as a person, whatever he decides is best for himself. Thanks for all the great memories as a lifelong Packers fan.

As a Viking fan who witnessed you kicking our butts many times I hope you come back even stronger. I felt horrible to see what happened knowing the Jets were going to have a great season. The league needs you!

Nothing but love for the guy and all he has contributed to the game. I wish him all the best.

This is Aaron, open, truthful and determined. He will be back as strong as ever. I have zero doubt.

I’m really appreciative of how easily he is able to communicate the mental hardships he goes through. It’s really important for us to hear that side of things.

Never been a Packers or Jets fan but I am a lifelong football fan, and this dude just gave me goosebumps. His mindset is incredible. Hope he comes back even stronger

Aaron We’ve been Jet fans for 50+ years . Season tickets holders . Always went with dad . Your my moms fav! They’re both 91 and we’re so excited I brought them to your last open practice . My dad was just diagnosed with multiple myeloma and I told him he needs to hang around to watch you finish this ! Love you man prayers to you and my dad ! LetsGo!!!

Man I F@Cking needed this today! I’m still numb from this series of events that had unfolded since April and needed to hear that interview from the man himself. Love you Pat, Love you Rog!

What a guy man, being able to laugh and joke after such a traumatic experience, my favorite NFL player of all time I hope he gets healthy and shocks the world

Hope he comes back next year healthy and has a good season. (From a Patriots fan)

I have witnessed this man ruin so many of my Dallas Cowboy seasons but damn i love everything about you dude. I know you have the perfect mindset already to be able to bounce back from this no problem! America can't wait to see you back on the football field!

Wish him the speedy recovery, hope he's 100% next year

“Get your fifth booster Keith” - dead!! Aaron is amazing & wishing him nothing but the best on his recovery!! 🙏🏻❤

How can you dislike this man? He’s genuine, honest, and open. Hope he heals well and comes back and crushes it

The side comments at 11:55 had me laughing so hard. This crew is so much fun to listen to every day!

"Give me the doubts, give me all the things you think can, should or will happen. Cause all I need is that one little extra percent of inspiration, that's all I need. Give me your prognostication, and then watch what I do." - Aaron Rodgers 2023 I need that on a shirt right now, I love this man.

Glad to see the goat in good spirits

To Aaron, you are a true fighter and I wish you only the best. Speedy recovery ❤

God bless Aaron, I hope he has a speedy recovery and is 100% when he comes back. Hopefully I’m still around to see him play

I have followed GB and Aaron for all his devoted years. I will always admire his contributions to the game of Football and GB. Sad to see this happen but please know I support him and wish a fast recovery and live his life whichever way he decides Hope to see him on the field again. Good Luck AR

HATED him as a Packers quarterback as a Lions fan. Completely heartbroken for him, the Jets and the sport of football for this injury. I hope he comes back and proves the naysayers wrong.

I respect Aaron as player, he did not deserve this. As a lifelong Packer fan I am hoping he recovers fully.

Maaaaan I was so hyped for the Jets season this year. Aaron seemed renewed with a new hunger and then 4 snaps later....Damn! Hope he has the speediest of recoveries.

Roger really feeling them percs!

Aaron you look great 48 hours post op. I know you will do well in your recovery! I cried when you left Green Bay and when you got hurt! Prayers for you and a speedy recovery!

49ners fan here, wish AR nothing but the best with recovery! Such a legend and class act. Hope to see him slinging the pigskin like he does next fall. That baaaddddd man aint done yet!

And thank you Greeny for being candid!

Much respect and love aaron...praying for a quick and speedy recovery man amazing career either way but I hope to see you back on the field and I'm a Bengals fan but love everything your about Rodg..much love

The “Revoke AJ’s Driver’s License sign”😂😂

So great to see this man. Beautiful interview. Got Aaron cracking jokes. Pat and the boys are the truth ❤️💯

Love you pat I was skeptical about the espn thing but you’re back and better than ever!

It's conversations like these that keep me coming back.

Great-Great Interview. Hoping for a quick recovery for Rogers. The NFL needs him back!

As a Bears fan I'm sick of Aaron Rodgers and look forward to the day he retires, but I still don't want to see it end like this. I know that Rodgers, his teammates, Jets fans, and NFL fans in general were psyched to see how far this Jets team could go, and seeing him go down with this injury is a bummer for everyone. I hope he makes a full recovery and can play until he's ready to retire on his own terms or because he's not good enough, and not because of injury

Pat truly is a great interviewer. My favorite part of all these shows is definitely the interviews.

Love It Pat The Pat McAfee Show Bro Let's Gooooooooo.

Wish this man the best. His achievement, transparency and legacy in the sport have been immense.

I'll tell you right now, 8 saying "give me the doubts, give me the timelines, watch what I do" is one of the greatest statements from a pro athlete I've ever heard! I can't fn wait to see the comeback!

Is this the content i been missing my not watching this sooner? This shii is fire lol good vibes all around definitely earned a subscription from me💯

Love from Green Bay, Aaron! This was a great convo to see you in good spirits- the world awaits your return to the field with the Jets, sir.

Pat is bringing his culture to ESPN. Love it

You just gotta love this guy. He's a solid dude. Prove them all wrong, Aaron.

I’ve never watched PMS in its entirety. 😂 this show has me laughing so hard! Subscribed!

Aaron you have changed my life through these interviews. Thank you.

He deserves the best. Healthy recovery 12. (Packers fan)

Packer fan here 110% behind Love but Rodgers is a great dude and the best QB. Absolutely terrible this happened hope he plays again man deserves another Lombardi!!💪🏾

We love you Aaron! Get better! From a Texans fan in Pennsylvania!

The greeny clip at the end is legendary

Man,that's too bad!!I feel bad for Aaron,Good luck to you man!

Imagine getting an injury like this on the job and not having to worry about bills or even your job. 90% would

I've seen the transition in this man's long journey, his way of adjusting to diversity on and off the blessed field ,I'm 41 years young ,I hope this man can grasp what he does for men like me that have hit highs, lows and everything in-between, I've wanted to give up on everything and I have. But everything happens for a reason, everything!! Thank you Mr Rodgers ..keep giving the misunderstood n discarded of us a little bit of your drive..get well ..

his response to a devastating injury is incredibly inspirational. this is how to live a life.

More people are rooting for Aaron now than before the jets season. Hope he comes back

Can’t wait to see you play next year. Get well soon

Absolutely love this show and the style it's conducted. Feels a bit more real.

What a positive attitude, Aaron! You are a gem and your fans loveeee to see you competitive and positive. Used to hate you earlier, you changed my opinion through your various interviews! God bless you!

Say what you will about the guy, he is really honest about how he processes a really tough situation. Talking about crying and being in dark place for a guy in his position is rare thing. Lots of respect to Aaron for sharing that.

Get better Aaron. Respect this dude a lot

This interview gives me goosebumps man haha. I'm so pumped to see what happens here.

One hell of an interview. You can't help but root for the guy.

As a lifelong Packer fan, I just wanna say thanks for all the great years and memories. I hope you heal well and heal quickly. The league needs you. On a side note, your comment to Keith "blubberman" at 27:00 had me in stitches. That was legendary right there.

Bro this injury will be remembered forever

Love you A Rod. Your an inspiration to all of us that lives our lives with no regrets and block out any outside negativity. God speed brother.

Pat out here getting the interview of the year!!!

it sucks that rodgers had maybe 4 years left in the tank on the jets and this cuts it down to probably only 2 yrs left post injury so I hope the man still gets another ring before it’s over 🤙🏾

Praying for your recovery Arod wanna see you back and still kickin a**.

8:17 the guy in the background yelling “two weeks” got me dying. Can’t believe we ignored that 😂

You gotta feel great if you're pat McAfee man. You love to see it

Respect, AR8. Push through on the rehab and come back stronger.

Life long Dolphins fan. I was CRUSHED when he went down. Life just isn't always fair.

This has been the most amusing dang fun of a sports interview ever. I laughed, dabbed the eyes, and laughed some more. Thanks, Aaron. It's great to see your sense of humor in spite of it all. I'm praying for divine miraculous healing. In the meantime, remember that your name means "mountain of strength, exalted, strong" and you were named Aaron for a reason. Look at it as prescience, pure and simple. Strength, love and quick recovery to you. God bless!

Might be the best interview I've seen in a long time.

Being a huge MX fan as well this reminds me of Eli Tomac's injury last season. Even haters didn't want his career to end that way. Glad both will be back.

Good to see Aaron's injury didn't make pat any less annoying!

Best sports interview I ever watch🎉

"Give me your doubts and watch what I do." - love that.

Absolutely dreaded playing him seeings as he was in our division but never want an absolute goat having such a devastating injury as he did.. wishing him a quick and complete healing and rehab process.. your far from done with your journey!… head up, nose down!!..

Get your 5th booster Keith lmfao 😂😂😂 espn I’m sure loved that 😂😂😂

Prayers from Hawaii brotha 🙏🏽 future HOF 🤙🏽

Love the guy. Great interview and pleased to see him in good spirits. ❤

I feel so bad for hating Rodgers for so many years. The media really did do him dirty just because he doesn’t color inside their lines I guess. I watched this show since there was only 7k followers and have maybe missed 10-15 shows, if that. When the Rodgers thing was being flirted with I was like “ great this guy “ and it quickly turned into “ this guy is F_____G GREAT “. I love how genuine all of pats regulars and even new visitors are. Because they’re their most laid back versions of themselves. Versus how they are on other shows/ interviews. Freaking love Rodgers now, I be bought every book from the book club and I’m now hoping he plays until his mid forties like my guy Brady. Would love for Rodgers to win one more and ride off into the sunset. He deserves it. He is the last hold over from the great late 90’s, early 00’s QB’s that completely changed the game!

I was so hyped to watch Aaron this season, this one hurts! Praying for a fast recovery!

Thank you

No, Aaron used the word “Modalities” correctly. It’s a common term in Physical therapy & athletic recovery to describe the different techniques and approaches that can be utilized to attack certain injuries.

life long vikings fan (my dad played in college with Bud Grant and was his roomate on travel days), but you can't hate a real athlete, competitor and seemingly all around good guy. Good luck with your recovery. I'm an orthopaedic surgeon and have done hundreds of achilles repairs and tore mine the same week as Dwayne Johnson. Trust me you will sail through your rehab (its really not that tough except for holding back). Will always be a big fan of someone with as big a heart as you. Mad respect for being so open with your feelings....

“Get your 5th booster Keith” 😂

Dolphins fan here: Bummed for you man, but you have a great outlook on it!! Keep the positivity alive, don’t listen to those BUMS

We are with you Aaron! Thank you for speaking your truth!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery!

“get your 5th booster, Keith!” 😂 gotta love Aaron! 😅

Aaron high af.

Im from Green Bay...thanks Aaron and get well soon!

Can’t wait to see Aaron in a Vikings jersey in 2 years

2023 Achilles tendon 2023 calf sprain during OTAs 2022 broken thumb 2021 broken toe 2018 concussion/MCL sprain 2017 broken clavicle 2016 calf strain As a Packers fan, I always felt like we didn't do much for injury prevention. Broken bones I understand, but to keep straining and tearing muscles (not just him) we can't just pretend like it's a turf/grass problem. Hydration, flexibility, etc, something else is at play here

Hope he comes back,He's a legend

Pat McAfee has got me to watch ESPN again. Salute

Best podcast ever!! So Hapoy to see and hear from Aaron💜💜💜💜 If anyone can come back from this Achilles surgery earlier than the norm, it’s him. You can just hear it in his voice how invested he is!! Looking forward to your continuing recovery with all the love and support from your fans,including this former MKE resident 💜🎉💜

I grew to like A-rod way more because of his stance and bravery in speaking out in regards to how the country and the NFL handled the pandemic. That's what real Americans do. Not be sheep, stupid, and compliant simply because some ridiculous "authority" says so.

“Go get your 5th booster…” May be the best thing I’ve heard all week

Fantastic interview.

Rodgers, McAfee and the whole crew have dope chemistry. Love watching them on the show. Always been a huge fan of Rodgers. Legend 💪 Wishing the Football Gods grant Aaron a speedy and successful recovery 🙏🙏🙏
