The NFL superstar was looking to go from MVP to MVH.
Rodgers, 37, took his time serving as the longrunning game show’s host very seriously when he stepped behind the lectern in early April 2021. “Other than the Super Bowl,” he said in the teaser clip when his appearance was announced, “this is the honor of a lifetime.”
A source told E! News, “He came in wanting to prove himself and he did. He has made his intentions known, he wants this job. Aaron’s public campaign to be the next Jeopardy! host has only won him increased support amongst the top brass.”
Plus, the Green Bay Packers quarterback’s stint generated countless headlines, endless buzz and good ratings. The amount of attention he could bring to the show if he became the permanent host is “very exciting” for producers, said the source.
