Aaron Rodgers teases potential viral moment during his ‘Jeopardy!’ episodes
An answer during Final Jeopardy from Aaron Rodgers’ stint as the guest host of the game show may provide a viral moment for fans of the NFL and Green Bay Packers.
Rodgers, who hosted 10 episodes, teased the upcoming “Jeopardy!” moment during an interview with Rob Demovsky of ESPN.
According to Rodgers, one contestant didn’t have an answer for the final clue, so he used the opportunity to take a jab at Rodgers and the Packers.
“For about 25 seconds, I’m watching him write this, and he thinks about the answer and says ‘F— it,’ basically, ‘I’m going to write this answer,’ which, probably one of the viral moments of my two weeks will be his response, which is taking a shot at something that happened to us late in the season,” Rodgers said.
During Final Jeopardy, contestants wager money before the clue. They are then read the clue by the host and given 30 seconds to write out their answers.
Rodgers, who could see the answers in real-time, said it was “pretty amazing” to watch the contestant write out the answer.
It’s possible the shot could have something to do with the long touchdown the Packers gave up late to Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first half of the NFC title game. The play was an embarrassing moment for the Packers and a pivotal play in the loss. Matt LaFleur deciding to kick a field goal late in the fourth quarter is another candidate.
The Packers won 13 games and Rodgers was the NFL’s MVP, but the team lost by five points in the NFC title game to the eventual Super Bowl champions.
Rodgers’ episodes begin airing on Monday, April 5 and last two weeks.
