New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers strongly shut down the idea that he was responsible for head coach Robert Saleh’s stunning firing Wednesday.
“I love coach Saleh, we have a very solid relationship. … He was a big reason why I came to the Jets,” the four-time NFL MVP told the “Pat McAfee Show.”
He continued: “As far as any of the ridiculous allegations that are out there, I’m not going to spend more than one sentence in response to it, and that is: I resent any of those accusations because they are patently false. It’s interesting the amount of power that people think that I have, which I don’t.”
Rodgers added that football is a “really tough business.”
