00:03 Because it's OTAs this week for every team, a lot of people talking,

00:06 including yesterday Aaron Rodgers, quarterback of the New York Jets.

00:11 Let's start, Joe, by Aaron saying that there's a lot of pressure on everyone,

00:15 himself, Salah, Hackett, after last year, and him getting hurt.

00:21 Let's listen to Aaron tell us all about that.

00:23 >> There's pressure on all of us.

00:25 >> All of us, yeah.

00:26 >> Why do you say there's pressure on you?

00:29 >> Well, I think if I don't do what I know I'm capable of doing,

00:33 we're all probably gonna be out of here.

00:36 So I like that kind of pressure, though.

00:39 I know it's a tough market to play in, it's not for everybody.

00:45 I relish that opportunity.

00:47 And that's the way the NFL is.

00:51 I'm not saying anything monumental as you guys are typing away and

00:53 putting your tweets out.

00:55 This is how it is every single year.

00:57 You might not say it, but as you get older in the league, if you don't perform,

01:01 they're gonna get rid of you or bring in the next guy to take over.

01:05 I mean, it happened in Green Bay.

01:06 So, and I'm a few years older than I was back then.

01:10 So I expect to play at a high level.

01:13 I expect us to be productive and competitive and

01:16 all that stuff to take care of itself.

01:19 >> Yeah, he's got it all figured out.

01:21 >> He's got it all figured out.

01:23 >> Let me tell you something.

01:24 Forget the off the field stuff, okay?

01:26 What Aaron Rodgers does with the New York media, okay, is he's running the show.

01:32 Okay, he's the greatest showman, like Hugh Jackman right now.

01:36 He's on top of the podium.

01:38 He's directing the questions.

01:40 He's, let's see what Aaron throws three interceptions against your Buffalo Bills or

01:45 my Miami Dolphins, and they get smashed and they start one in six overall.

01:51 How he's running the room, because then all of a sudden the New York media is like

01:55 Great White and Shark Week, they smell blood in the water.

01:58 Hey, big bad Aaron, what happened this week?

02:01 He ain't gonna like those types of questions because he never got that in

02:04 Green Bay because they were too afraid to upset the franchise.

02:08 They're not gonna do that in New York.

02:10 And with their gutless head coach Salah,

02:12 that looks like he saw a deer in the headlights.

02:15 How he's a defensive wizard is beyond me.

02:18 He's got a personality of a cardboard box, unbelievable.

02:24 I knew that would get you going.

02:25 I think I got time, I can at least squeeze in him telling everybody.

02:29 Remember Joe, he was in the running to be RFK Jr's vice president for

02:34 running mate.

02:35 Let's see what he has to say about that.

02:37 >> How seriously did things get with RFK about being the running mate?

02:42 Obviously we haven't got the chance to talk to him since that came out launch.

02:46 >> Yeah, I love Bobby.

02:47 We had a couple of really nice conversations.

02:49 But there were really two options.

02:52 It was retire and be his VP or keep playing.

02:57 And I wanna keep playing.

02:59 >> So he considered it, Joe, at least.

03:03 He thought about it.

03:04 He wanted to keep playing football.

03:06 >> You want me for Jeopardy, you want me for Vice President,

03:10 say LaVie, I can do it all.

03:11 >> Bobby, come on.

03:13 >> Bobby.
