Rogers, who had considered Kennedy's offer to be his running mate during the 2024 presidential election, said on "The Pat McAfee Show" that he wanted to watch the hearing "to see who was trying to have sex with him."
"Come on, someone is trying to go after him and then watch him get completely smeared with any of these senators," Rogers said. "Senators, you better be ready, be prepared, try and see if you can Stop my kid Bobby, because Bobby’s so fucking smart, man, and there’s no off-the-cuff notes to handle on his own.” It’s exciting for him — and honestly, everyone is. It should be so. "
Rogers spoke of Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" initiative. The movement appears to have started this week when the FDA banned red food dye due to potential cancer risks.

"Like, if you take a minute to look at the ingredients in American products versus overseas products, it's disgusting," the star quarterback said. "The things they allow here, the levels they allow here, are not good for you. It's a terrible product, a product that they know causes cancer, so if you let him get it, he's going to serve everyone. "Get out of the way and stop labeling them." God wanted to put a label on him.
"He just wants to make sure everything given to our children is safe, everything we put in our bodies every day is safe, and he's going to 'Make America Healthy Again,' or he's going to freak out and die."
