    ESPN Issues Big 'The Pat McAfee Show' Announcement

    By Owen Crisafulli,

    6 hours ago

    It's been a busy week for Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets, but that didn't stop the legendary quarterback from making his weekly appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" on Tuesday afternoon.

    Of course, Rodgers' latest appearance on the show came just hours after the Jets traded for star wide receiver Davante Adams, with the team's newest addition making an unexpected cameo with Rodgers on the show.

    There was already a lot of buzz surrounding the Jets and Rodgers, so quite a few football fans tuned into the show to see what the veteran passer had to say about New York's big move. And as ESPN recently announced, Rodgers' presence ended up leading to some massive viewership numbers for "The Pat McAfee Show."

    Tuesday's episode of "The Pat McAfee Show" was the most viewed episode of all-time, showing just how much interest there was, and still is, in the Jets reuniting Rodgers with his longtime Green Bay Packers running mate in Adams.

    With the Jets offense struggling early on in the season, the team is hoping that adding Adams to a unit that already features the likes of Rodgers, Garrett Wilson, and Breece Hall will help them take things to another level.

    Given the viewership numbers "The Pat McAfee Show" brought in during Rodgers' appearance, it seems as if there are a lot of fans who are curious to see if this move will yield the desired results, as the team could be in trouble if they still struggle even with Adams on board.

    Regardless, this is a huge win for ESPN and "The Pat McAfee Show," and considering all the fanfare that will surround Rodgers and the Jets all season long, his appearances on the popular show will likely continue to draw in a large amount of viewers throughout the remainder of the season.
