Is Aaron Rodgers vaccinated? What did Aaron Rodgers say about being immunized?

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has reportedly tested positive for coronavirus.

Due to his diagnosis, Rodgers will not be able to participate in Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs. “I mean they’re not going to postpone or cancel the game. We have a game to play,” said a Green Bay Packers source.

After much controversy when Jordan Love was drafted, it is the back-up QB who will have the opportunity to prove himself to the Packers, and the world, until Rodgers returns.

Is Aaron Rodgers vaccinated?

Head coach Matt LaFleur would not confirm or deny whether or not he has been vaccinated for Covid-19. However, the NFL has considered Rodgers unvaccinated since the beginning of the 2021 season.

Early on in the season, Aaron Rodgers requested and was denied an exception to the NDL-NFLPA Covid-19 protocols due to his antibodies. This resulted in Aaron Rodgers being deemed unvaccinated by the NFL.

Rodgers has been very vague when asked about his vaccine status by reporters. When asked if he has been vaccinated, Rodgers said he is “immunized.”

Rodgers added, "Owners have made statements. There's guys on the team that haven't been vaccinated. I think it's a personal decision. I'm not going to judge those guys. There's guys that have been vaccinated and contracted Covid. So it's an interesting issue."

LaFleur was asked whether Rodgers' response was ‘misleading’ and the coach said “that’s a great question for Aaron. I’m not going to comment on it.”

The NFL said from the beginning of the 2021 season that they will not accommodate in the case that there is a covid-19 outbreak among unvaccinated players on a NFL team. Teams that face this problem were told they would have to forfeit.
