Why Aaron Rodgers chose Pat McAfee Show to give NFL trade update

Aaron Rodgers stunned nearly 500,000 live viewers on The Pat McAfee Show when he confirmed that he wanted to leave the Green Bay Packers for the New York Jets in a bombshell trade update.

Rodgers has been tangled in a trade saga between his Packers and the Jets for some time and a deal is still not close to being completed with his contract still reportedly needing to be restructured and a compensation package ironed out.

It’s not the first time Rodgers has appeared on ex-Indianapolis Colts punter McAfee’s successful YouTube channel, where he has grown a subscriber base of 2.16million. McAfee is a close, trusted friend of four-time MVP Rodgers, with the pair’s friendship starting in 2019 at a golf tournament in the Bahamas.
