GREEN BAY - The quarterback of the Green Bay Packers, who happens to have the same first name as a murder suspect and former New England Patriot, was named (seemingly by accident) as that suspect in a news report.

ESPN's Jeremy Schaap, a long-respected journalist and six-time Emmy Award winner for the network, let the words "Aaron Rodgers" slip out instead of Hernandez.

"...implicating Aaron Rodgers in the death of Odin Lloyd."

You can see the video of that slip-up above in our media gallery.

Rodgers tweeted this comment afterward.

It wouldn't surprise me if ESPN did it on purpose. They're bigger exhibitionists and tramps then Paris Hilton.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I guess he can't sue ESPN now because it's true.

I'm not sure killing the hopes and dreams of Bears and Vikings fans counts as murder. It's really more of a public service.
