Aaron Rodgers Clarifies Relationship with Texans Coach DeMeco Ryans: “No Bad Blood, We Shook Hands!”

Aaron Rodgers is clearing the air following a narrow Jets win over the Texans, which has generated some buzz regarding a supposed snub from Texans’ head coach DeMeco Ryans. Rodgers insists the two shared a friendly moment that was just missed by the cameras!

On a recent episode of the Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers spoke to his longtime pal A.J. Hawk about the rumors swirling after footage appeared to show Ryans disregarding him post-game.

Fans speculated if Ryans’ apparent cold shoulder had something to do with Rodgers’ connection to axed Jets coach, Robert Saleh, who happens to be friends with DeMeco.

Initially taken aback by the uproar, Rodgers shared that he had no awareness of the supposed tension until the guys on the show showed him the clip that had fans talking.

In a lighthearted manner, Rodgers jokingly referred to Ryans as a “punk” after viewing the video but clarified that they did have a mutual exchange after the match.

“I shook his hand and told him how much I respected him,” Rodgers explained. “And I wished him good luck for the remainder of the season.”

Rodgers elaborated, “We shared a moment where there was the customary respect — a handshake and a tap on the shoulder.” It’s clear that all signs point to mutual admiration rather than animosity.
