What’s Happening:
NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers is not one to back down from controversy. Across his long career in football, he has been known–not only for his wins–but for his outspoken opinion and lifestyle.
Not too long ago, he was blasted by the left for his opposition to Biden’s vaccine mandates. He was one of a few public figures who defied the establishment, giving voice to millions of Americans who opposed the government agenda.
Now, he is back. And, as you can expect, he is not shying away from speaking his mind — this time, he is criticizing the grand poobah of the COVID debacle, Anthony Fauci.
From Breitbart:
New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers took another swipe at Dr. Anthony Fauci on Tuesday as he discussed his recovery from an Achilles injury…McAfee noted that some commentators are saying Rodgers is “defying science” with his quick recovery from the injury…
“Like we learned, if science is Dr. Fauci, you’re damn right I’m defying science.”
Rodgers was discussing his recovery from an Achilles injury on the Pat McAfee Show. The host commented that Rodgers was allegedly “defying science” with his quick recovery. Serious injuries can set a quarterback back for weeks if not months.
But it appears Rodgers is on the mend, faster than expected.
In response to McAfee’s comment, Rodgers to what is perhaps a final jab at infamous COVID expert, Anthony Fauci. Rodgers said, “If science is Dr. Fauci, you’re damn right I’m defying science.” Rodgers had previously criticized Fauci, calling him a “pharmacrat.”
Fauci was heavily criticized after an interview in which he suggested he was “science.” The former Biden official upset millions of Americans with his support for crippling lockdowns, mask mandates, and vaccine requirements.
Fauci had enjoyed popularity at the outbreak of COVID. But quickly Americans grew to distrust and disrespect the career bureaucrat. The doctor has since retired from his government job, at which he worked for over 35 years.
Key Takeaways:
- NFL player Aaron Rodgers criticized Anthony Fauci while discussing a recent injury.
- He said, “Like we learned, if science is Dr. Fauci, you’re damn right I’m defying science.”
- Rodgers had previously criticized vaccine mandates and mocked Fauci.
