Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers appeared on Inside the NBA Sunday, looking to promote his golf match with Tom Brady against Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes. However, being the nature of the pregame show, there was still plenty of time for Rodgers and the crew to joke around. Mainly Charles Barkley, who took a hilarious shot at the quarterback’s hair.

Rodgers has been growing out his hair and had it up in a bun during his television appearance. Barkley described it as a “wilderness look” while laughing with fellow NBA analyst Shaq.

Later, when specifically asked about the “man bun”, Barkley voiced his displeasure with the look. The former NBA star went on to give Rodgers a suggestion on how he should change his hairstyle.

“The man bun?,” Barkley asked. “That’s not a thing. It’s called too cheap to get a haircut… Get a haircut, Aaron.”

Packers QB Coach: Aaron Rodgers ‘doesn’t need reps

While the Green Bay Packers traded away star wide receiver Davante Adams in the offseason, they also brought back a familiar face Aaron Rodgers. The Packers hired Tom Clements as the team’s new quarterback coach. Clements previously coached in Green Bay from 2006 to 2016, serving as the Packers’ offensive coordinator from 2012 to 2014.

Last offseason, Rodgers had an uncertain future with the Packers and he was not participating in offseason workouts. While he now has a new contract extension in hand, Rodgers is still not participating in team activities as of now. But that isn’t concerning in any way to Clements.

“Aaron doesn’t need reps at this time of year,” Clements said, via NFL.com’s Grant Gordon. “Obviously, it’d be nice to have him here, but he’s seen these things a thousand times and he’ll be ready to go when training camps start.

“He’s just at a different stage of his career now where he’s taking care of himself and working on what he thinks he needs to work on physically. And he looked good when I saw him, so he’ll be ready to go.”
