Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers tested positive for Covid-19 and has been placed in the NFL’s strict protocols for unvaccinated players—after previously indicating that he had been vaccinated
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers indicated in August that he was vaccinated against Covid-19. Now he has tested positive and been placed in the NFL’s protocols for unvaccinated players, raising questions about whether he or the team violated the league’s pandemic policies related to vaccines.
Rodgers has been ruled out for Sunday’s marquee showdown against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs because of the positive test, according to two people familiar with the matter. That outcome indicates he has not been vaccinated: Players who have gotten the shot have an avenue to return to the field more quickly, according to the health and safety protocols established this season by the league and players union.
