Aaron Rodgers: Was immunized| Jimmy kimmel| Why is not playing
Was immunized:
NFL star Aaron Rodgers said Tuesday that he takes “full responsibility” for his misleading comments about his vaccination status. The Green Bay Packers quarterback revealed last week that he has not been vaccinated against COVID-19 and has faced heavy criticism for saying in August that he was “immunized.”
“I shared an opinion that is polarizing, I get it. I misled some people about my status, which I take full responsibility of those comments,” he said Tuesday on the “The Pat McAfee Show,” where he first disclosed his vaccination status last week.
Jimmy Kimmel:
Jimmy Kimmel tore into Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Monday evening for trying to hide his unvaccinated status, revealed last week when he tested positive for Covid-19 and missed Sunday’s game.
On a podcast called the Pat McAfee show last Friday, Rodgers defended himself, saying he tested negative 300 times before testing positive, “which is the same kind of logic your 95-year-old grandmother uses to justify keeping her driver’s license,” Kimmel said.
The football star also blamed the “woke mob” for demanding his vaccination status. “If the vaccine is so great, then how come people are still getting Covid and spreading Covid and unfortunately dying of Covid?” he asked.
Why is not playing: Aaron Rodgers
“I think there’s a possibility (of not playing), but a small possibility,” Rodgers said.
Rodgers made a return appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” on Tuesday and said that he is feeling better but there is some doubt that he’ll play Sunday.
Rodgers tested positive for COVID-19 on Nov. 3 and missed the team’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. He would not be available to play until Saturday, Nov. 13, the day before the Week 10 game against Seattle.
