Rodgers is reportedly unvaccinated, despite telling reporters that he is “immunized” back in August.
“Yeah, I’ve been immunized,” Rodgers said during a news conference with Packers media on Aug. 26. “There’s guys on the team that haven’t been vaccinated. I think it’s a personal decision, I’m not gonna judge those guys.”
