Overview

• Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers as his vice presidential running mate for the 2024 independent ticket.
• Kennedy, running as an independent, aims to challenge Donald Trump and Joe Biden in the upcoming presidential election.
• Rodgers, with no prior political experience, would be an unconventional choice, as every elected vice president in U.S. history had previous political or military experience.
• Former NFL players have transitioned into political roles before, but Rodgers would be the first active NFL player to run for such a high office.
• The decision on Kennedy's running mate is expected to be announced on March 26 in Oakland, California.
