McAfee Apologizes for Being 'Part of' Rodgers' Comment Alleging Kimmel has Link to Epstein

Pat McAfee apologized for his involvement in the situation between Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Kimmel. After Rodgers implied that Kimmel's name would be included in court documents from a case connected to Jeffrey Epstein, McAfee addressed the matter on 'The Pat McAfee Show.'

McAfee acknowledged that he understood why Kimmel felt the way he did and clarified that Rodgers was likely just attempting to talk trash. McAfee also expressed his desire for the issue to be resolved between the two parties, without resorting to legal action.

The feuding between Kimmel and Rodgers dates back to previous incidents, including Kimmel mocking Rodgers' views on vaccines and UFOs. Both McAfee's show and Kimmel's show are owned by Disney.

Background on Kimmel and Rodgers Feud

Kimmel and Rodgers have had a history of feuding, with Kimmel previously making jabs at Rodgers' stance on vaccines and theories about UFOs. In 2023, Kimmel referred to Rodgers as a 'Green Bay whack Packer' after Rodgers suggested on 'The Pat McAfee Show' that news of UFOs was deliberately released to divert attention from the potential reveal of the Epstein list.

It's worth noting that Kimmel hosts 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' on ABC, while McAfee's show airs on ESPN. Both networks are owned by Disney.

ESPN Declines Comment on Situation

An ESPN spokesperson chose not to comment on the situation between McAfee, Rodgers, and Kimmel. It remains to be seen how the feud will progress and if any further action will be taken.

The issue arose after Rodgers insinuated that Kimmel's name would be included in soon-to-be unsealed court documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Kimmel denied the allegation and expressed concern for the safety of his family.
