Ryan Fitzpatrick gave Aaron Rodgers a timely comedic intro before the Browns game.
The New York Jets are amid a competitive Thursday Night Football matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The Jets entered the matchup at 6-9. Of course, the team is without Aaron Rodgers, but the veteran QB is on the bench. Before the game, Ryan Fitzpatrick hilariously trolled Rodgers for some comments he made about being vaccinated.
Aaron Rodgers gets trolled on the Jets bench before Thursday Night Football
Ryan Fitzpatrick was helping conduct the TNF pregame show when the time came for him to speak to Aaron Rodgers. Fitzpatrick told Rodgers he had a couple of questions for him before comically introducing himself as “twice vaccinated”:
NO WAY… “HEY AARON, CLASS OF 2005, TWICE VACCINATED.”

Fitzpatrick’s troll stems from comments Rodgers made earlier in the week on the Pat McAfee show. The Jets QB said those who conspire about his injury should be required to announce their vaccination status.
“Everybody could know at that point that they have their puppet masters who are puppeteering them to say this certain thing about this guy and that they’re still upset that I believe in medical freedom,” Rodgers said.
Ryan Fitzpatrick took Rodgers’ advice and delivered his vaccination status in a comedic fashion. The crew had a nice laugh, but the fun times did not last long for the Jets.
New York finds itself down 34-17 to the Browns at halftime. Cleveland is putting on an offensive clinic. Meanwhile, the Jets are struggling to match their energy. Joe Flacco threw for 296 yards and three touchdowns in the first half.
The Browns picked up a whopping 18 first downs compared to the Jets’ six. Can New York regroup and make a second-half comeback?
