He added, “I consulted with a now good friend of mine Joe Rogan, after he got COVID, and I’ve been doing a lot of stuff that he recommended.”
Though Rodgers said he tried to petition the NFL to “accept my immunization status as under their vaccination protocol,” he was ultimately denied.
Due to his non-immunized status, he must now follow what he believes are “draconian and shame-based” protocols for those who are not vaccinated against COVID-19, which includes wearing a mask in public, testing for COVID-19 every day and certain travel restrictions.
During his interview, Rodgers also asserted that he’s “not a COVID-denier” and that the “situation that I’m in should be a conversation, not a controversy.”
