It appears that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw verbal jabs at Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce during his recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show on October 3. Rodgers, known for his candid commentary, didn't hold back as he criticized Kelce's performance in the Chiefs' recent game against the New York Jets.

Addressing the game, Rodgers commented, "[Chiefs quarterback] Pat [Mahomes] didn’t have a crazy game, and ‘Mr. Pfizer,’ we shut him down. He didn’t have a crazy impact game." The reference to 'Mr. Pfizer' was a not-so-subtle dig at Kelce's involvement in COVID-19 vaccine ads for pharmaceutical giant Pfizer. Rodgers seemed unimpressed by Kelce's on-field contributions and hinted at a lack of impact during the game against the Jets.

According to insider reports, Rodgers was convinced that Kelce was dating Swift purely for the attention and clout it brings. Furthermore, Rodgers threatened to 'expose' Kelce for what he believed to be a publicity-driven relationship, as per RadioOnline. Adding fuel to the fire, sources claim that Rodgers, currently sidelined due to injury, is grappling with jealousy over the attention Kelce has garnered both on and off the field.

A tipster revealed, "He's burning with jealousy over how much attention Travis is getting, and it's that much worse because Aaron is out with an injury." The insider further disclosed that Rodgers had apparently initiated a betting pool among his inner circle, speculating on when Kelce and Swift's potential breakup could occur.

Addressing rumors about an alleged altercation with one of Swift's security guards, Travis vehemently denied any physical fight. He clarified, "Pushing them out of the way? I didn't push him. I placed my hand on the gentleman's back to let him know I was behind him. If I had pushed him, he would have probably turned around and tased me." Travis emphasized that Swift's security team comprises "great" and "good people."
