Rodgers lied about his vaccination status back in August when he stated he was “immunized” instead of vaccinated. The NFL community has come down hard on the reigning NFL MVP and First Take’s Stephen A. Smith is the latest to put the Packers quarterback on blast.
Stephen A. Smith tear’s into Rodgers over vaccination status
Speaking on First Take on Monday, Smith made his feelings about Rodgers and the whole situation known and didn’t pull any punches. He said:
He added:
Smith was highly critical of Rodgers, saying he was “immunized” instead of “vaccinated” during a press conference earlier this year. He said:
For the most part, people are okay with players not being vaccinated as it is a personal choice, but in Rodgers’ case, it was the fact that he lied about being vaccinated when he was not.
Stephen A. Smith was primarily critical of Rodgers for lying about his vaccination status instead of telling the media about his position as Kirk Cousins and Carson Wentz have (both unvaccinated). They have not been scrutinized because of their beliefs on the vaccine.
Rodgers is due a day before the Packers play the Seahawks, so it remains to be seen if he will take the field. If not, then Jordan Love will get another chance to stake his claim as the franchise’s future.
