'Rodgers was supposed to be the cool quarterback,' laments williamfleitch
Not cool, actually. Photo: Stacey Revere/Getty Images The thing about Aaron Rodgers is that we all thought he was smart. More than that, we thought he was different.
He dismantled all that goodwill in three days. By the end of the weekend, Rodgers had lost all his health-care sponsorships, and those ubiquitous State Farm commercials were conspicuously absent from broadcasts. He was even mocked on Saturday Night Live, with Pete Davidson portraying him as part dumb jock, part Typhoid Mary.
Partly because he was perceived as having some intellectual heft, Rodgers was initially given the benefit of the doubt — and that’s on us. When he first tested positive, some thought it could have been a false positive. When that turned out not to be the case, and news broke that he was unvaccinated, some wondered if Rodgers were one of those athletes who had avoided getting the shot out of a warped devotion to his body — which is, after all, how he makes his money.
