Packers' Aaron Rodgers on Comments from MVP Voter: ‘I Think He Is an Absolute Bum’

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers didn't hold back on his thoughts when addressing the comments of Chicago-based sportswriter Hub Arkush, who said he would not vote for Rodgers as this year's Most Valuable Player.

Arkush, one of 50 Associated Press voters, spoke on Chicago's 670 The Score radio station on Tuesday saying that Rodgers was the "the biggest jerk in the league.” He also said that Rodgers’s behavior in violating COVID-19 protocols were reasons as to why he did not deserve to win the award this year.

While Arkush admitted he made a mistake in his comments about Rodgers on Wednesday, the three-time MVP was not happy when he spoke to the media later in the day.
