Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers spoke to reporters on Wednesday about the mass shooting in Las Vegas. 

"You're just heart broken for those people," he said. 

Rodgers had some friends at the concert that night. He didn't personally know anyone who was hurt or killed, but his friend did. 

"A friend of mine lost their best friend of 20 years," Rodgers said. "It's something that we are unfortunately still having to deal with. We have to make some changes in society, hopefully quickly, because there are too many situations like this where we send our thoughts and prayers to these victims and unfortunately keep having to stand up here and talk about it some more."
