On Cam Heyward’s “Not Just Football” podcast, Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers discussed how his 2021 skepticism of COVID protocols and criticism of Dr. Anthony Fauci made him a public villain after years as a media darling. He highlighted the deliberate use of ‘immunized’ to describe his holistic regimen amid an NFL appeal, called out perceived hypocrisy in media treatment of unvaccinated players, and labeled Fauci a ‘criminal’ seeking fame. Fans remain split, with some defending his right to question policies and others saying his wording invited the backlash, as he heads into what he calls his final NFL season.
