Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is (angrily) voicing his displeasure with the now dispelled rumor that he would hold out of the Super Bowl.
Last week, a rumor began making the rounds that Rodgers would boycott the Super Bowl if the Packers make it — to protest the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols.
During his weekly appearance on the “The Pat McAfee Show,” the reigning MVP didn’t hold back, using several expletives along with the word “ridiculous.”
Then added: “I’m gonna boycott the Super Bowl … that’s the dumbest s–t I’ve heard.”
The Packers have a bye this week by earning the top seed in the NFC.
