Some of the biggest NFL news in a long time came Wednesday with former New England tight end Aaron Hernandez being charged with first degree murder. While covering Hernandez’s arraignment, ESPN’s Jeremy Schaap, made a crucial error and confused Hernandez with current Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. “Certainly based on what we heard there is a lot of evidence, albeit circumstantial, implicating Aaron Rodgers in the death of Odin Lloyd.”
Rodgers wasn’t all too happy about Schaap’s mistake. He sent out this tweets shortly after.
Not funny ESPN

Shaap responded to Rodger’s tweet.
@AaronRodgers12 funny, no. But I did correct myself, right then, which of course the clip does not include.
