"I was very surprised, definitely," Rodgers said on The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday. "Just it's so rare that somebody, I think he was coaching high school, right? Definitely no NFL coaching experience, I don't believe."

Saturday has no coaching experience at either the NFL or college level, becoming the first person since Norm Van Brocklin in 1961 to become an NFL head coach without coaching at these levels, per Pro Football Talk.
