The former Packers QB shared thoughts on his 'immunization' comments in an upcoming book.
Next week, sports writer Ian O'Connor will release his latest book in the form of an unauthorized autobiography on New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers. In an excerpt published to ESPN on Monday morning, it was revealed one of the topics covered is the immunization controversy from 2021.
Rodgers, who previously said the controversy had a dramatic impact on his public image, told author Ian O'Connor that the primary reason he claimed he was "immunized" was the statement represented "the crux of my appeal." So it sounds as though Rodgers wishes he were honest from the jump, and he went the immunization path as part of an effort to convince the NFL that his holistic treatments should be considered on par with vaccination. Not much would change in that alternate universe. Rodgers would probably still catch heat for his anti-vaccination stances and his relationship with the Packers was quite rocky already. But it may have been less of a PR storm.
