With the Kentucky Derby finally here, Aaron Rodgers is back in attendance! Not only is the Jets quarterback attending the race like last year, but he also has decided on his horse’s name. In a rapid-fire held at the venue, A-Rod had some interesting answers, one even hinting at an interesting future prospect.

Rodgers hilariously shared that he would name his horse after his former Packers teammate, Corey Linsley, “because that boy’s got stamina.” The veteran QB was also asked if he would prefer to be an owner, jockey, or trainer, to which the 40-year-old replied, “Owner. For sure.”

The Super Bowl champion is as multifaceted as they come. His many endeavors on and off the field have culminated in a net worth of $200 million. Apart from being a top-tier quarterback and earning $37.5 million annually, Rodgers also owns a minority ownership stake in the Milwaukee Bucks. He became the first active football player to own an ownership stake in an NBA franchise back in 2018.
