Aaron Rodgers names the only two NFL QBs he watches live

Aaron Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, but he has tremendous respect for some of his counterparts. It's the utmost honor to know that a four-time MVP has enough respect for someone's talent to sit down and watch, which is true of only two quarterbacks.

The quarterback was asked about this on the Pat McAfee Show.

The future Hall of Famer didn't disclose much, but he did admit he really liked one player in particular:

"I really like Josh Allen, I've gotten to know him a little bit over the years. I really like him as a person, so, yeah. If somebody that I really, really, really like is on TV, I'll probably check them out, so I checked that game [Tennessee vs. Buffalo on Monday night] out."

The two competed against each other in Capital One's The Match this offseason, along with Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes as well. Rodgers was then asked who else is on the list. The quarterback shied away from admitting a lot of players he likes:

"I'm not going to give away that information. If it's applicable to the conversation, AJ, you know, add to it... I know you're trying to set me up with some ridiculous interjection."

Finally, the quarterback admitted who he likes to watch, including a former heated rival:

"I do like Josh Allen a lot, and if he's on, I usually like watching him. I like Matt Stafford a lot. If he's on, I'll watch him. I'll stop right there."

Rodgers is more than likely to watch multiple quarterbacks, but he wasn't prepared to admit that to the world.

What are Aaron Rodgers' current MVP odds?

One of the players that Rodgers enjoys watching had the best MVP odds in the league coming into the season. Allen was ahead of Brady, Mahomes and others. Two weeks later, Allen has played fantastic and is proving the oddsmakers right early in the season.
