RFK, Jr. Chums It Up With Jets QB Aaron Rodgers During Hike

The mainstream media wants these guys to take a hike; so they did.

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and Independent presidential hopeful Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. ('RFK') combined forces for a power hike. In the intersection of sports and politics, Rodgers-RFK is a rare team-up built on friendship and personal freedoms.

Despite their common bond arriving in the form of an ‘anti-vaxxer’ label, Rodgers and RFK have demonstrated that they're fairly in touch with the common man. Rodgers has long been on the RFK train — even suggesting a debate featuring the two, 'Mr. Pfizer’ Travis Kelce and the esteemed Dr. Anthony Fauci.

"Hiking with @AaronRodgers12 and his amazing Achilles," Kennedy Jr. posted on X, showing Aaron and his dogs going out for a hike on Wednesday.

Rodgers has been an RFK, Jr. fan of the presidential candidate's ardent messaging for personal freedoms amid the COVID vaccine mandates/witch trials. 

The ex-Packers QB (in)famously opted out of sharing his personal vaccine information with the media, setting off the sect of sports media who begged him to ‘wear the ribbon.’

Now, Rodgers embraces a new form of ‘bio-hacking’ via his Achilles rehab. 

Since going down on his first drive as a Jets quarterback, Rodgers' Achilles recovery has been nothing short of a miracle. 

Rodgers met with notorious sports surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache for an Achilles Bridge procedure, bypassing the traditional Achilles repair surgery.

Injured in Week 1, Rodgers eventually worked himself up to practice in what could have been an in-season Achilles recovery to remember — similar to former Rams RB Cam Akers, who required only six months to heal from a ruptured tendon injury and made an in-season return.

In RFK, Jr.'s case, the independent candidate with a progressive background won over a surprising number of middle to middle-right Americans after showing off his ‘swole’ body at his late age (70). 

The power of abs can help anyone reach any ceiling in this country. That is why America rules.
