Aaron Rodgers’ Corona illness and the subsequent interview on the “Pat McAffee Show” about his vaccination status has been the dominant topic in the NFL lately. The Green Bay Packers quarterback, however, is said to have not liked the reactions to his statements at all.

Munich/Green Bay – This is certainly not what Aaron Rodgers had in mind. The Green Bay Packers quarterback openly expressed concerns about a Corona vaccination in an interview on the “Pat MacAfee Show” after a positive Corona test and the subsequent discussions about his vaccination status.

The reactions to the extensive interview seem to have surprised Rodgers. Because: There was a hail of criticism from all corners, and on various social media platforms users were amused by the partly dubious statements of the superstar quarterback. In addition, the TV programme “Saturday Night Live” parodied Rodgers’ performance.

Aaron Rodgers probably angry over criticism

Rodgers’ displeasure at this has now been confirmed by the US portal “people.com”. A person close to the 37-year-old is said to have revealed that the Packers star had expected headwinds, but did not see the extent of the criticism coming. According to the report, the reactions make him “angry and unhappy”.

He “feels he just spoke his mind and is now being crucified for it,” the source is quoted as saying. “There are even friends turning away from him. “

Rodgers has been in domestic quarantine since the diagnosis and can’t return to the Packers until Saturday (11/13) at the earliest. An appearance against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday is therefore possible if things go well.
