Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers expressed his keen interest in Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s upcoming Senate confirmation hearing for the position of Department of Health and Human Services Secretary. Rodgers voiced his support on "The Pat McAfee Show," stating his eagerness to see Kennedy engage with senators. He believes Kennedy's intellect and improvisational skills will be on full display.

Rodgers, who previously considered Kennedy as a potential running mate for the 2024 presidential election, challenged senators to "come ready" for the hearing, predicting Kennedy would "mop the floor" with them. He praised Kennedy's intelligence and ability to speak extemporaneously.

The quarterback also highlighted Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" initiative, emphasizing the importance of safe ingredients in consumer products, particularly for children. Rodgers criticized the disparity between permitted ingredient levels in the U.S. versus other countries and lauded Kennedy's commitment to improving public health. He believes Kennedy is dedicated to ensuring the safety of products consumed daily.

Rodgers' comments come amidst both support and criticism for Kennedy's nomination. The confirmation hearing, yet to be scheduled, is expected to draw significant attention.
