So the NFL couldn't wait until Mahomes and Rodgers faced off, which was supposed to happen in 2019.
But Mahomes was out for that game. And the Packers were not expected to play the Chiefs until 2023.
So the NFL created a 17-game schedule. And they devoted the 17th game to the long-awaited Mahomes-Rodgers matchup.
That game was supposed to be played Sunday.
Anyways, this is something that 2021 Rodgers would do -- not 2016 Rodgers.
#Packers QB Aaron Rodgers is unvaccinated, per me and @MikeGarafolo. That’s why he’s out for Sunday vs. the #Chiefs.

Note that when Aaron Rodgers talked about the vaccine when asked in late August, he said he's been "immunized."https://t.co/W6zm8UdZNC

#Packers QB Aaron Rodgers was quoted as saying he’s been “immunized.” By the letter of the law in the NFL, that does not equal vaccinated. https://t.co/g5xyjDZ6uL
