Earlier today, we learned that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is unvaccinated, as he tested positive for Covid and will now be forced to miss at least 10 days.
Many were wondering how this happened, as Rodgers seemed to confirm he was vaccinated when asked about it by a reporter prior to the start of the season.
