$200,000,000 worth Aaron Rodgers charges 'millions' for Pat McAfee appearances: Reports

According to a new report, the frequent appearances for Aaron Rodgers on the Pat McAfee Show are not cheap. They reportedly cost the Show millions. Rodgers is one of the premier players in the NFL and a face of the league and is evidently paid as such.

Andrew Marchand reported that Pat McAfee revealed that the star quarterback has made quite a lot of money off these appearances:

“Aaron has made over $1,000,000 with us, for sure."

The New York Jets quarterback has been a regular weekly appearance for McAfee and his co-hosts this year. Despite his devastating season-ending injury, Rodgers still comes on the show to discuss his team and all things he's interested in.

He started as a member of the Green Bay Packers. It has since become the location for breaking Rodgers news, as he often reveals things on the show.

Pat McAfee defends decision to pay Aaron Rodgers

Pat McAfee talked about Rodgers getting paid by him today on his show. He said that he has done this for years because the show's market value has increased significantly over the years.

To make things right, he pays everyone who has helped the show get better. The former Colts punter takes care of Rodgers even though the quarterback doesn't want him to because Rodgers' appearances have brought in a lot of viewers.

McAfee said:

"One holiday season, we write a little cheque for $450,000 and it's nowhere near enough for what you've done for us. Aaron's very uncomfortable with that, obviously, but then I start breaking it down, like hey, let me tell you what you've done for our company and you shut the f--k up. That is basically how this is going to go..."

Aaron Rodgers is a frequent on Pat McAfee Show

Aaron Rodgers goes on the Pat McAfee Show

Despite the fact that he makes "millions" in Pat McAfee's show, the appearances are very beneficial for Aaron Rodgers. Financially, they're great, but he needs them as well.

The show has a unique dynamic with Rodgers. The Jets' star is infamously anti-media. In fact, he slandered reporters while on the show for reporting something he felt was inaccurate.

He has claimed many times that Adam Schefter and others don't have any information regarding him, so any time he appears on the McAfee Show, he can set the record straight.

It's where he revealed his darkness retreat and his intention to join the Jets. It's also where he has free reign to talk about whatever he wants.

The Pat McAfee Show is extremely open. They can largely talk about what they want and say what they want. That's what set it apart. Even though it's on Disney, there's a lot of freedom.

Rodgers, who has a net worth of $200 million, knows that, so he can go on and say whatever to his audience, which faithfully tunes in every time. Right now, he's using it as a way to try and call out Travis Kelce and Pfizer for their vaccine stance among other things.
