Aaron Rodgers mentioned. “Funny enough, I went to him before the game, and I said, ‘great day to catch your first touchdown today I think,’ and he kind of smiled. Sure enough, there’s a lot of things I love about Romeo, but it’s just his approach. He’s very steady, he asks a lot of good questions, he’s sharp when you quiz him in a meeting or if a Coach quizzes him. He’ll always come up with the right answer, cares about it, and the best thing is he catches the ball with his hands all the time.”

Rodgers then recalled his catch on a screen press last week. The QB mocked Romeo Doubs about their conversation on Friday after the game. But Doubs came back with a ludicrous over-the-shoulder hand grab with the ball a foot above his head.

Aaron Rodgers explains the Jumbotron claim

After the BucsPackers Week 3 clash, Aaron Rodgers’ Post-game interview became a viral highlight. He mentioned observing something in Tampa Bay’s jumbotron that should not have been there. It resulted in a two-point conversion effort, which failed spectacularly and clinched Green Bay’s victory. Rodgers appeared on The Pat McAfee Show to discuss what he witnessed and what he shared with Head Coach Matt LaFleur.

Rodgers mentioned observing something on the Jumbotron about four plays before the conversion and tried to convey it to LaFleur. The quarterback did not elaborate on what he observed or whether it affected the outcome. But A-Rod thought it was insignificant. Eventually, it led to a big win for Green Bay.

Will Rodgers and the Packers make a successful playoff run? It is subject to witness.
