Aaron Rodgers’ fiery outburst toward Michael Pittman Jr could mean he skipped ayahuasca retreat

Yes, an ayahuasca retreat is just for the offseason. But isn’t that supposed to work in-season? Aaron Rodgers’ supposed split personality gets highlighted in his public persona.Because, on the one hand, he’s a Zen master who goes on podcasts to heap praise on the peaceful, ego-dissolving nature of the traditional South American plant-based psychedelic brew.But, on the other hand, there’s this ultra-competitive, four-time MVP quarterback whose fiery emotions can quickly surface when things don’t go his way on the gridiron. So, what’s the point of the darkness retreat [named by Cam Heyward]? Anyhow, coming back to Rodgers’ [exaggerated?] reaction:What more does Aaron Rodgers want? The Pittsburgh Steelers won by three points in Week 3 against Joe Burrow’s Cincinnati Bengals. But did it stop the Steelers QB from expressing his frustration during the 30-27 game? Probably not.The Bengals were leading 27-24 after Joe Burrow found wide-open tight end Mike Gesicki for a fourth-down touchdown early in the fourth quarter.But when Pittsburgh wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. dropped a critical third-down pass in the fourth quarter, Rodgers showed his frustration by supposedly saying, “M*th*rf*ck*r s*cks a*s! F*ck*ng s*cks a*s!” as pointed out by Hater Report on X.Aaron Rodgers’ Roman Wilson praise raises Michael Pittman Jr questionsRoman Wilson played in 3 games and caught 11 passes on 18 targets for 114 yards and 1 touchdown. Michael Pittman Jr. recorded 5 receptions on 8 targets for 74 yards and 0 touchdowns in 2 games.Pittman missed Week 2 against the New England Patriots with a foot injury. He sustained or aggravated the foot injury during practice leading up to the Week 2 game. He returned for Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals, catching 2 passes on 5 targets for 16 yards and no touchdowns.As for DK Metcalf, he caught 11 passes on 24 targets for 98 yards and one touchdown.When reporters asked Rodgers about Roman Wilson’s targets after the Week 1 win over the Atlanta Falcons, the Pittsburgh QB said that he didn’t “give a sh*t about the target list.”“I love Roman. I think he’s done a great job. You know, I think there’s gonna be a play too that he makes…that allows him to take off, but I thought he played fast last week. I thought he played decisively. And I think he’s just gonna keep getting better,” Rodgers added.After this Wilson praise in the press conference, Rodgers showed clear frustration with Pittman. This says a lot about the WR-QB dynamic. He’s happy with Wilson but unhappy with Pittman?Aaron Rodgers’ alleged Michael Pittman Jr outburst revives ayahuasca debatePraising Roman Wilson but reportedly verbally abusing Michael Pittman Jr. sure says a lot about the ayahuasca retreat lover, Aaron Rodgers.While Hater Report said Rodgers was saying, “M*th*rf*ck*r s*cks a*s. F*ck*ng s*cks a*s,” some fans corrected Hater Report, saying the Pittsburgh QB was not directing anything at Michael Pittman Jr. but at the play: “‘That play f*ck*ng s*cks a*s, it f*ck*ng s*cks a*s!’ There, I fixed it for you.”Another said Rodgers was not calling out the player but was upset with the play call: “He wasn’t calling out the player. He was probably pissed at the play call.”However, there was one fan who questioned, “Is that the ayahuasca talking?” So, we’re back to square one. If ayahuasca doesn’t help in-season, then what’s the point of it in the offseason?Stay updated with the latest Asian Games 2026 news, check the Asian Games medal tally and complete Asian Games schedule.Get the latest Sports News and Live updates.
