It was one of the weirder moments of Thursday night’s New York Jets win over the New England Patriots.
After a touchdown scored by Brece Hall, head coach Robert Saleh tried to embrace Aaron Rodgers, who pushed him away, seemingly saying something to the effect of, “Don’t celebrate yet!”
What was really said? Here’s what Rodgers said after the game: “Awkward? No. … He’s not a big hugger usually, so I didn’t know he was going for the hug. He likes to do the two-hand chest push as well. He talks a lot about two-score leads. So I just kind of gave him a push and said ‘two-score lead.'”
Aaron Rodgers was asked about his exchange with Robert Saleh in the second quarter:
