NFL Confirms: Star Anti-Vax QB Is Out For The Season

NFL.com reports:

Aaron Rodgers’ aspirations for resurrecting the New York Jets lasted just four snaps. Rodgers’ and the Jets’ cruelest fears were realized on Tuesday as an MRI revealed he suffered a torn left Achilles in Monday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills and will miss the remainder of the 2023 season. It’s a crushing blow at the onset of what was hoped to be a renaissance season for the Jets and, furthermore, bears questioning what’s next for Rodgers, who turns 40 on Dec. 2.

The Daily Dot reports:

While this is dire news for Rodgers, reactions on social media were far from sympathetic. In fact, many fans took the opportunity to crack jokes about Rodgers’s anti-vaxxer reputation. Rodgers said back in 2021 that he wasn’t vaccinated against COVID-19, revealing that he’d taken ivermectin as a treatment after “consulting” with Joe Rogan. Since then his vaccination status has become a punchline, coupled with a growing reputation for goofy wellness habits.

– ankle injuries commonly happen to horses
– ivermectin is a very popular medication for horses
– you guys see where this is going right

Joe Rogan must have held Aaron Rodgers by his ankle when he dipped him into the River Ivermectin to immunize him.

Rodgers carrying the flag of the government he thinks perpetrated 9/11 is the exact mental gymnastics I would expect him to perform. https://t.co/YmiTIlaKWf

BREAKING: Aaron Rodgers’ season-ending ankle injury is said to have been caused by the fact that he has ingested so much horse paste that his feet are turning into hooves. His physician, Joe Rogan, could not be reached for comment. Developing… or should I say, mutating…

Absolutely hilarious that Aaron Rodgers is getting trashed and even funnier that he suddenly doesn’t believe that anal leeching heals torn Achilles despite the valuable reliable research that Alex Jones conducted for his PhD from Trump University.

Aaron Rodgers out for season with torn Achilles per ESPN.

Buck up, Aaron. Could be worse. You could be medically vulnerable in a world where ignorant jackass celebrities spread medical disinformation.
