There is officially smoke between Aaron Rodgers and Dr. Anthony Fauci. The former top U.S. health official has been under the microscope lately after invoking the Fifth Amendment during testimony.
Rodgers appeared on The Pat McAfee Show, and when asked a question, he replied, “I’m going to plead the fifth. Like that absolute coward, Tony Fauci. Absolute coward.”
Think the shot is a stray? Not particularly. Rodgers was on his Anti-Vax flow for a while, so who knows exactly what is going on in his head. But he’s no fan of Fauci.
But Fauci didn’t fold. He clapped back by way of his attorney: “Aaron Rodgers doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He should stick to football.”
The ball back in Rodgers’ court. Or the field.
