Late-night show host Jimmy Kimmel has taken a swipe at New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers following a report from CNN claiming the latter does not believe the Sandy Hook shooting was real.
Said network claimed that the Jets QB had multiple private conversations in which he dismissed the 2012 incident as a government conspiracy, claiming everyone involved was acting.
The four-time MVP has since taken to social media to deny this, but he’s still coming under heavy criticism.

Kimmel, whose feud with the QB reignited several weeks ago, made up a conspiracy theory of his own during ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ this week in which he claimed Rodgers actually can’t play football and was using a body double the whole time.
“I hate to do this because I’m not the conspiracy type,” he began.
“But I have my own issues with Aaron Rodgers. I’ve spent the last couple of months looking into this, and I think it’s time to share something with the world. It’s going to shock you, so buckle in.”
“The first time he played in an NFL game was last year — the week before his first game with the Jets, Aaron’s body double, the guy who played every single game for him before this, died of COVID, and they had nobody dumb-looking enough to fill in,” he continued.
“So they had to bring in the real Aaron Rodgers, and he had to go in and fake an injury on the third play of opening day. That’s why he only threw one pass.”

Kimmel then went on to claim that the theory he had just voiced was more believable than some of Rodgers’ stories.
“Now, I know it sounds wild, but trust me, it’s more believable than some of Aaron Rodgers’ tall tales,” he quipped.
Rodgers sparked the dormant feud when he suggested that Kimmel was among those who did not want the “Epstein list” to be released. Naturally, everyone took it to mean that Kimmel’s name would show up on the list but Rodgers has insisted that he didn’t believe so himself and that’s simply not what he was saying.
