During a preview of this week’s episode of “HBO Hard Knocks,” New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers was stunned after being the subject of a card trick by magician and mentalist Oz Pearlman.
Not only did he correctly take the card from the deck that Rodgers thought when he blindly took a three of diamonds into Rodger’s hands, in what seemed like a standard trick, but he also left Rodgers with a goldfish at the end.
The amazing thing about Rodgers holding the goldfish — aside from the fact that it wasn’t clear on camera how the deck of cards he was holding turned into it — was that it was what safety coach Marquand told Manuel to think about as he sat next to him. to Rogers.
“But what if you had chosen a giraffe?” exclaimed a Jets player as he watched in amazement during the funny moment.
After showing the goldfish to the rest of the room, Rodgers himself sat staring at his own hands in amazement.

NFL teams often do things like bring in entertainers for a random day during training camp in an effort to lighten the mood and keep players in a good mood during the rigorous pre-season practices, which New York did with Pearlman’s performance as they prepared for their second preseason game against the Carolina Panthers.
The Jets went on to win the horribly one-sided game 27-0, so the detour from standard practice time seemingly didn’t hurt the team.
New York is currently in joint workouts with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ahead of their preseason game on August 19.
The Jets also recently made headlines for signing four-time Pro Bowl running back Dalvin Cook, as sophomore standout RB Breece Hall worked his way back from a torn ACL he suffered last season.
