In this story:

Aaron Rodgers and the rest of the New York Jets were mystified by mentalist Oz Pearlman in a clip going viral on social media.

Pearlman, a former America’s Got Talent finalist, came to do a show for the Jets players at their training camp facility in Florham Park, N.J. HBO’s Hard Knocks captured footage of Pearlman working his magic with Rodgers, and the stunned reactions from the QB and the rest of the Jets said it all. Pearlman was successfully able to guess which card Rodgers was thinking of, then somehow snapped his fingers and made an encased goldfish appear in Rodgers’ hands.

Here’s a look at the mind-bending video.

Watching the reactions from Jets players was priceless, especially Rodgers, who looked truly shocked. Fans on social media seemed equally wowed by Pearlman’s sleight of hand.
