Rodgers is one of the most talented quarterbacks in NFL history. He has won the NFL MVP award four times, led the Green Bay Packers to a Super Bowl victory, and is widely considered to be one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
Off the field, Rodgers isn’t afraid to speak his mind. He notoriously refused to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Roughly 10 months after the first clinical trials, the COVID-19 vaccine from Pfizer-BioNTech was approved for emergency use authorization (EUA) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on December 11, 2020. To this day, the effectiveness of the vaccine and its negative side effects have remained a topic of debate.
During the interview with Maher, Rodgers criticized Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom for implementing extremely harsh restrictions on small businesses in the state. Maher mentioned Newsom’s new censorship bill that is expected to punish doctors for spreading so-called COVID “misinformation” and “disinformation.”
“Based on whose standard of misinformation?” Rodgers asked. This isn’t the first time that Rodgers commented on California’s political leadership. He also spoke out during an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast. (Trending: Fauci Gets The Worst News of His Career)

In response to Supreme Court’s historic decision to overrule Roe v. Wade, Rodgers said, “I think there’s a lot of people that believe that you should have your own decision-making on your own medical decisions.”
“My thing is I have an issue with the hypocrisy in society in general and I know you do as well, but abortion has been a hot topic, right,” he continued. “And especially after Roe v. Wade got overturned and sent back to the states, or whatever. I don’t believe the government should have any control over what we do with our bodies.”
“As much as I might lean more pro life, I don’t want the government to tell me I can’t smoke a cigar, I can’t have a drink of alcohol, I can’t choose my own medical decisions,” Rodgers said.
“And if I’m a woman, don’t f—ing tell me what to do. Like whether or not I agree with what you decide to do, who cares? And the government should not have a decision that infringes upon my own personal freedoms,” he concluded.
