​Aaron Rodgers May Face Jimmy Kimmel Lawsuit Over 'Epstein' Remark

Aaron Rodgers could be facing legal action after suggesting that ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel would appear on a list of people associated with accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

The former Green Bay Packers quarterback made the comments Tuesday during his weekly appearance on ESPN's "The Pat McAfee Show."

"There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, really hoping that doesn’t come out," Rodgers said. "I’ll tell you what, if that list comes out, I definitely will be popping some sort of bottle."

Kimmel responded on social media by calling Rodgers an expletive and stating that "I’ve not met, flown with, visited, or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any 'list' other than the clearly-phony nonsense that soft-brained wackos like yourself can’t seem to distinguish from reality."

Kimmel added that "Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court."

Rodgers' comments Tuesday were presumably a response to Kimmel's jokes made at the quarterback's expense back in March. Kimmel suggested that Rodgers needs to go into concussion protocol due to his conspiracy theories.
