Allen’s message about Rodgers

ā€œHe’s a quirky guy, Aaron is. You’ve got to be able to find ways to dig at him just a little bit. I think he respects it when you do that to him, so I let him have it,ā€ Allen declared in an exclusive interview with People during the charity event.

I grew up watching him and idolizing him, so it’s kind of surreal to sit here and be friends with him and a have a relationship with him,ā€ Allen said.
