On Thursday, Aaron Rodgers expressed his eagerness to view Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s confirmation hearing with legislators on Capitol Hill.

Kennedy has been nominated by President-elect Trump to head the Department of Health and Human Services, but a confirmation hearing with senators has not yet been scheduled.

Rodgers, who was offered to be Kennedy's running mate in the 2024 presidential election, stated on "The Pat McAfee Show" that he wanted to watch the hearing to see who tried to mess with him.

"Please, someone, try to catch up to him and watch him wipe the floor with any of these senators," Rodgers said. "Senators, be prepared to face off against my boy, Bobby, who is incredibly smart. He can handle anything off the cuff, so I'm excited to see him excel. And everyone should be too."

Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" initiative was touched upon by Rodgers. This week, the FDA banned red food dye due to potential cancer risk, which seemed to kick-start the movement.

The star quarterback stated, "If you take a moment to compare ingredients in products in the US versus overseas, it's appalling. The levels of harmful substances allowed here are alarming, and many products are known to be cancerous. Therefore, it's crucial to allow him to continue his work and not try to label him as whatever they want to label him these days."

"He wants to ensure that everything given to our kids and ingested daily is safe, and he will make America healthy again or die trying."
