GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) – The NFL’s review into the Green Bay Packers COVID-19 protocols has been completed and is resulting in fines, multiple outlets reported Tuesday evening.
ESPN reported the Packers have been fined $300,000 for violations while quarterback Aaron Rodgers and wide receiver Allen Lazard are each fined $14,650.
Last week, Rodgers tested positive for COVID-19 and was placed on the COVID-19/reserve list. He was not able to play in Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
In an interview Tuesday on “The Pat McAfee Show” on YouTube and SiriusXM, Rodgers defended his choice not to get vaccinated, but apologized for misleading people on his vaccination status.
