Well I wish I hadn’t seen that…
Of course Caitlin Clark is one of the most recognizable athletes in all of sports right now, after the Iowa Hawkeyes superstar just became the #1 draft pick in the WNBA on the heels of leading her team to two consecutive appearances in the NCAA national championship game.
She’s proven to be a ratings powerhouse, with Iowa’s final three games of the women’s NCAA tournament drawing higher ratings and more viewers than the men’s tournament, and the championship game featuring Clark and the Hawkeyes taking on the defending national champion South Carolina Gamecocks becoming one of the most watched college basketball games in history – men’s or women’s.
So yeah, everybody recognizes Caitlin Clark these days – but some people think they recognize her from somewhere else too…
The internet has begun pointing out that Clark bears a striking resemblance to New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers – and I’ve gotta be honest, I kinda see it.
Someone said she look like Aaron Rodgers lol now I can’t unsee it 😂😂

(I mean, obviously without the beard and mustache and all that but…you get it).
And a lot of people on the internet seem to think that they bear a resemblance to each other.

Well, now I can’t unsee Aaron Rodgers when looking at Caitlin Clark. Not sure how to feel about that

Yeah, once you see it there’s really no turning back.
But looks may not be the only thing that Clark has in common with Rodgers, who’s known (aside from the whole football thing) for his weekly appearances on The Pat McAfee Show.
Caitlin Clark joined McAfee on the show today, and said that she wouldn’t mind being a recurring guest either:

Gotta think that she won’t be as controversial of a recurring guest as her doppelganger:
Absolutely dying at Aaron Rodgers calling Travis Kelce "Mr. Pfizer" on The Pat McAfee show hosted by Disney's ESPN.
