Bears legend Dick Butkus goes after Aaron Rodgers immediately after getting verified on Twitter

The Chicago Bears-Green Bay Packers rivalry is extremely lopsided on the field. Off the field, though, there are still fireworks. Bears legend Dick Butkus went after Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers immediately after Butkus got verified on Twitter.

Butkus, who has been on Twitter since 2020, started campaigning for verification in mid-January. He finally got his blue checkmark Friday. After thanking those who helped him get verified, Butkus immediately turned his attention to Rodgers, threatening to kick him off Twitter.

If Rodgers saw that note, he didn't respond.
