Aaron Rodgers issues lame apology

football/nfl/story">

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers reconsidered his statement about the ambiguity over his vaccination status that caused a stir in the NFL world on Tuesday.

The 37-year-old athlete provided his interlocutors with an unfinished explanation to, in a way, apologize.

“I made comments and people felt misled,” Rodgers said, in words reported by the NBC Sports Network. To all those who have felt this way following my comments, I take full responsibility for them. ”

The veteran had said during the summer to have been “immune” when asked if he had received his doses of vaccine against the coronavirus. He had obviously played on words, since a few days ago he admitted to having undergone homeopathic treatments recommended by his personal doctor to increase his antibody levels and not to having received a vaccine.

Rodgers’ name has since been placed on the list of players who must comply with COVID-19 protocol. He was forced to miss last Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

In the absence of their starting quarterback, the Packers bet on young Jordan Love. The roster suffered a 13-7 setback, with the 23-year-old completing 19 of his 34 runs for 190 yards and one interception.
