Aaron Rodgers salutes Alex Trebek during 'Jeopardy!' guest hosting debut
He also had the perfect reaction to a contestant's Final Jeopardy answer.
NFL star Aaron Rodgers kicked off his first week of guest hosting "Jeopardy!" and before he could challenge the contestants, he took a moment to honor his hero, Alex Trebek.
The 37-year-old Green Bay Packers quarterback introduced himself as a "lifelong fan" and said it was "an incredible honor to guest host."
Rodgers isn't only a dedicated fan of the game show; he also won "Celebrity Jeopardy!" in 2015 -- an experience he said he will cherish forever.
"Now, I've had the opportunity to do a lot of amazing things, but winning 'Celebrity Jeopardy!' and getting to share the stage with the legend Alex Trebek is something I will never forget," the athlete said. "Alex was such a gentleman. So smart, so precise, I was in awe."
Rodgers promised he will "work hard to honor his legacy."
