Twitter reacts to Aaron Rodgers comments on COVID-19 vaccination status originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
Aaron Rodgers hasn’t had the best week.
After being ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a positive COVID-19 test, questions about his vaccination status surfaced.
It was revealed that Rodgers is unvaccinated, despite previously telling reporters in August he was “immunized.”
Rodgers shared his side of the story on the Pat McAfee Show Friday and caused some controversy with his opinions.
Twitter was more than happy to let Rodgers know how they felt about his comments.
This Aaron Rodgers interview is proof of the Mark Twain quote:
“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt”

Aaron Rodgers really chose to trust Joe Rogan and ivermectin over medical professionals and the vaccine. Man, Jeopardy down bad.

The best part of Aaron Rodgers speaking out is he’s one of the smartest players in the NFL. He came prepared. And is absolutely destroying the people who have been crushing him.

Rodgers’ status for the Packers will be something to keep an eye on as the season continues.
Many placed his actions under scrutiny considering how he may have violated the NFL’s COVID-19 policies and his explanation on Thursday isn’t likely to make more people trust him
Either way, folks are going to continue to have fun joking at the ridiculousness of this situation.
