Fox broadcaster Nick Wright has again harshly criticized Aaron Rodgers, calling him “the voice in sports for some of the most crazy, unhinged people” after his outlandish claims from Jimmy Kimmel.
Rodgers controversially said the comedian and TV host would be named to Jeffrey Epstein's list of associates earlier this week.
The New York Jets quarterback made the claims during his weekly Tuesday appearance on the Pat McAfee show on ESPN, prompting the comedian to take legal action.
McAfee himself responded to the outrage on Wednesday, claiming Rodgers was “just talking to Kimmel,” with whom he has a long history of tension.
But Wright spoke on his show Thursday about Rodgers and the “venomous bull***” that was “just pouring out of his mouth.”

Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee show this week that Kimmel would be on the Epstein list
He said: 'The story is that Aaron Rodgers, who is undeniably one of the most famous athletes in America, perhaps the most powerful player in the most powerful league we have, has crossed the rubicon from crazy man of conspiracy theory to evil force in the culture and no one seems to have batted an eye.
“If Steph Curry went on 'The Dan Patrick Show' and just casually said, implying that Julia Roberts killed someone and it seemed serious, I don't think the story would be, 'Is this going to affect Dan's relationship with Julia's influence film? studio?”
“I think the story would be, 'What the hell happened to Steph Curry?'
“Rodgers has become the voice in the sports world for some of the most deranged, unhinged people in our population.”
Furious, Kimmel went to X to express his anger.
'Dear A***hole: For the record, I have not met, flown with, visited or had any contact with Epstein, nor will you find my name on any 'list' other than the patently false nonsense that meek idiots like you seem unable to distinguish themselves from reality,” the comedian said angrily.
“Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep up the good work and we will discuss the facts further in court.'

It is the second time in a few weeks that Wright has been very critical of Rodgers.
The former Packers star took a bizarre anti-vax tirade — again on McAfee's show — to the extreme, making Rodgers himself suspicious that ESPN would take him off the air.
In the aftermath, Wright called Rodgers “the most dishonest athlete of my life.”
Rodgers also recently referred to “Alphabet Gangsters” in the medical field – presumably organizations like the CDC and the FDA – while failing to acknowledge that the term is commonly used in LGBQT+ discussions.
Wright added, “He's so deep in the toxic brain vortex of the internet that it got lumped in with the mass delusional psychosis he's talking about and the Super Bowl logo memes and the 'debate me, bro' against (Dr. Anthony) Fauci, and the Epstein list, it's all just one stew of brains that are melting.
“Now he's throwing out terms that not only have nothing to do with the pharmaceutical industry, but would be rejected if he knew what they meant.
“I think Aaron is many things, I don't think condemning what people do sexually in private is one of them.
“Yet it just poured out of his mouth, like so many of those other poisonous bulls*** that have a platform to spew for almost an hour a week in front of people who I don't think would otherwise be looking for it.”
