Aaron Rodgers still isn’t a fan of “cancel culture.”
He made that clear yet again when the Packers quarterback showed up to his weekly appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” Tuesday, wearing a black sweatshirt with the words “Cancel Culture” crossed out on the front.
He brought up the term cancel culture in November responding to backlash over saying he is “immunized” against COVID-19.
“I realize I’m in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now, so before my final nail gets put in my cancel-culture casket, I think I’d like to set the record straight on some of the blatant lies that are out there about myself right now,” Rodgers said on Nov. 5.
Back in November, the world found out he was unvaccinated after he tested positive for COVID-19, despite him saying he was ‘immunized’ against the deadly virus. Rodgers opted to receive an alternative treatment from his personal doctor instead of getting the shot. The NFL and NFLPA agreed the treatment was not enough to be considered vaccinated, and Rodgers was later fined by the league for violating COVID-19 protocol.
“I’m still under the 90 days so as far as I know, I don’t have to test until those 90 days are up,” he said, referencing a 90-day break from testing after his positive result. Rodgers wouldn’t face another COVID-19 test until after the NFC Championship game if the Packers stay alive.

Here’s how social media reacted to his hoodie:
In 13 games this year, Rodgers has thrown for 3,487 yards, 30 touchdowns and only four interceptions. Those type of numbers have him in the running for yet another MVP award, but who knows if the people voting for him will use his vaccine sdtatus against him.
They clearly should not, since it’s about what players do on the field, but we all know better.
