GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers said he did not lie when discussing his immunization status, has followed almost all protocols for unvaccinated players and explained his reasoning for not getting one of the traditional COVID-19 vaccines before this season.
Rodgers tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, is considered unvaccinated by the NFL and is in a 10-day minimum quarantine that will keep him out of the Green Bay Packers' game Sunday at the Kansas City Chiefs.
In a 46-minute appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers said he's allergic to an ingredient in two of the three approved vaccines -- the ones produced by Moderna and Pfizer, known as mRNA vaccines.
