Former ESPN commentator Keith Olbermann somehow found a way to connect Aaron Rodgers’ vaccination status with the season-ending injury the quarterback suffered on Monday night, and Rodgers did not pass up an opportunity to respond.
Olbermann had a strange social media post when Rodgers was injured just four snaps into his New York Jets career. Olbermann made a dumb joke about Rodgers suffering a Lisfranc injury “due to failure to vaccinate.”
Rodgers opted to not get the COVID-19 vaccine, and the way he handled the situation angered a lot of people.
During Rodgers’ appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” Friday, host Pat McAfee mentioned to Rodgers how Olbermann linked the injury to the four-time MVP’s vaccination status. Rodgers responded by telling Olbermann to “get your fifth booster” and calling him a “bum.”
Rodgers made similar comments last year when an MVP voter did not vote for him because of the quarterback’s vaccine decision.
