Aaron Rodgers received some criticism from former teammate Greg Jennings. The Green Bay Packers quarterback was admonished for his public comments regarding his teammates.

Rodgers, no doubt a legend in his own right, has been falling short off late on the field. On the Pat McAfee show, Rodgers said “We’ve gotta fix that. You know whatever it is, I think you know, guys who are making too many mistakes shouldn’t be playing. Gotta start cutting some reps. Maybe guys who aren’t playing, maybe give them a chance.” Currently 3-4 in the league, the Packers’ performance has been nothing short of underwhelming. Fans online have called out the Packers and their quarterback for not delivering over the last few games.

An uphill battle for the Packers

Jennings proceeded to list the upcoming teams the Packers are to face and added, “They have a [an] uphill climb that if they don’t strap in this could get ugly. Will it? I believe it all depends on how old number 12 deals with everything.”

The Packers took their third consecutive loss against the Washington Commanders. Losing 23-21, Rodgers‘ statements on the Pat McAfee show were critical of his teammates. The current Packers offense has not responded to their quarterback’s remarks. Rodgers’ brutally candid remarks about potentially dropping current teammates were taken in bad taste by fans.
