Mel Kiper Jr. made some headlines on Thursday when he ranted on ESPN about how the NFL is getting ruined these days by the existence of two high safeties.

He talked about how he misses deep shots (missing that Justin Jefferson score from Week 2) and wants to see safeties closer to the line of scrimmage.

On Thursday night, after Aaron Rodgers beat the New England Patriots that included a TD throw to Garrett Wilson, the QB was asked about how he and Wilson hadn't connected much.

His answer: "The entire focus of all three defenses we've played have been taking Garrett away. It's been Mel Kiper's worst nightmare. Been a lot of cover 2, you know?"

LOL. So he's seen the clip!
