Monday’s Aaron Rodgers trade to the New York Jets gave NFL fans a lot to talk about. Most importantly, however, football fans now have another meme in their arsenal thanks to NFL insider Adam Schefter.
Schefter broke the Rodgers news live on ESPN’s NFL Live afternoon show, interrupting his interview with Laura Rutledge to share the announcement. And while Rodgers was heavily linked to the Jets months ago now, the live trade announcement left the entire ESPN crew flabbergasted as Schefter listed off the details of the trade.
While the reaction of the NFL Live crew is fantastic, football fans have keyed into Schefter’s hilariously indignant response to being interrupted as a hot new meme.

Oh yeah, Schefter’s reaction is definitely joining the Sports Meme Hall of Fame. Right up there with Brian Windhorst for sure.
Here’s how NFL fans utilized Schefter’s reaction to the Rodgers trade for meme purposes.
