A rep said that Kennedy is "considering" Rodgers as a running mate.
The New York Times, which first reported that Rodgers and former WWE star and Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura were on Kennedy's list, said the four-time NFL MVP "welcomed" the idea.
Neither Rodgers' agent nor the Jets immediately responded to a request for comment.
Rodgers has been outspoken about his support for Kennedy, even saying he would like to be in a tag-team match with Kennedy as his partner against Dr. Anthony Fauci and "Mr. Pfizer" Travis Kelce. When he dropped that bomb, he referred to RFK Jr. as "my man."
