Watch: Robert Griffin III makes ayahuasca joke about Packers' Aaron Rodgers
Robert Griffin III is the latest noteworthy individual to take a shot at Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
As Jenna Lemoncelli explained for the New York Post, Griffin made a joke at Rodgers' expense during ESPN's "Monday Night Countdown" program ahead of the matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and New Orleans Saints.
"In order for [the Green Bay Packers] to dig themselves out of this hole, they need the best version of Aaron Rodgers," Griffin noted during a segment. "And right now, that ayahuasca seems like it has him in a completely different world."
Griffin was referencing how Rodgers admitted this past summer he had used ayahuasca, a plant-based psychedelic tea, during offseasons. The NFL later confirmed that ayahuasca is not on its banned substance list.
Griffin offered his comments a day after Rodgers threw three interceptions in a 15-9 loss to the Detroit Lions which was Green Bay's fifth-consecutive defeat. After that contest, former Saints head coach Sean Payton said that the 3-6 Packers are "not a good team."
Fox Sports personality Colin Cowherd suggested that Rodgers isn't "all in" this season and has even appeared "checked out" during games.
Per ESPN stats, the four-time NFL Most Valuable Player is 16th among eligible quarterbacks with an 89.0 passer rating and 27th with a 36.3 total QBR on the campaign. Only five signal-callers have thrown more interceptions than Rodgers' seven.
Rodgers and the Packers next host the 6-2 Dallas Cowboys this Sunday.
