Aaron Rodgers may be the star of the next season of "Hard Knocks" when the New York Jets reportedly take center stage of the HBO series that annually covers an NFL team’s trials and tribulations through training camp, but that does not mean he is a fan of having the cameras there.

After ESPN reported the Jets were set to be the team of the summer, Rodgers’ 2022 interview with Bill Maher on "Club Random" talking about "Hard Knocks" resurfaced.

Maher asked Rodgers a hypothetical about the Green Packers – Rodgers’ team at the time – asking him about doing "Hard Knocks." Maher asked whether the quarterback would think that was a good thing.

"No," Rodgers replied, adding that he would "veto" the idea.

"I heard they were interested a couple times but our GM never wanted to do it," he explained about the Packers' thinking. "I mean usually it's teams that are kind of at the bottom and they've kind of worked it in the deal where there's like five or six teams that they can choose from that don't really have a choice. But I mean, I like real authentic interactions."

Rodgers did find one positive about the TV show – Liev Schreiber. It appeared Rodgers was a big fan of the idea of Schreiber narrating.
