Jordan Rodgers is a suitor on The Bachelorette who makes JoJo Fletcher sweat.

In Fletcher's People blog this week, she noted that Robby Hayes made her feel safe and comfortable on the show in that she never felt the need to worry about him.

"Jordan on the other hand, was someone I did have questions about," Fletcher wrote in the blog.

Fletcher repeatedly told Rodgers he made her nervous during this week's two-night event, and the 27-year-old former pro quarterback wasn't sure whether or not that was a good thing.

"There was no denying the attraction between us, but something about Jordan scared me. I would often find myself getting nervous around him. I couldn't decipher if it was nervous butterflies or something else," Fletcher explained.

However, Rodgers realized he needed to be vulnerable in order to stick around, so he told Fletcher he could see himself falling in love with her, and the admission seemed to put the Bachelorette's mind and heart at ease.

"Having him open up to me and to see him begin to drop his walls was exactly what I needed in that moment," said Fletcher. "It felt like a turning point for us, and I knew I wanted to show him that I saw that by giving him the Group Date rose."

Rodgers was a frontrunner since the start of Season 12, as he snagged the first real kiss of the season as well as Fletcher's First Impression Rose. Although they haven't enjoyed a one-on-one date yet, based on previews for upcoming episodes, Rodgers won't have to wait much longer.

After The Bachelorette's first episode aired on ABC, Rodgers' ex-girlfriend Brittany Farrar blasted him on social media for being a liar, cheater and fame-seeker. If any of that is true, Fletcher had every right to be nervous about him.
