Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers placed on COVID-19 list

(GREEN BAY, Wis.) — Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will miss this Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs after being put on the NFL’s COVID-19 list, the team said.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters during a press briefing Wednesday afternoon that he is unsure how long Rodgers, 37, will be out beyond this week, and that backup quarterback Jordan Love will start at Kansas City in his place.

LaFleur said he couldn’t comment on whether Rodgers tested positive for COVID-19 and was unsure if the athlete is experiencing any symptoms. He also wouldn’t confirm whether Rodgers was vaccinated against COVID-19.

“I think everybody has to make their own personal decision, and that’s just what it is,” the coach said.

The announcement sparked some confusion around Rodgers’ vaccination status.

ESPN reported Wednesday, citing sources, that the reigning NFL MVP purportedly petitioned the NFL to have an alternative treatment allow him to be considered vaccinated.

The league ultimately ruled that Rodgers would not be considered vaccinated, according to ESPN sources. However, Rodgers has not been wearing a mask while in-person at news conferences. The Packers have put unvaccinated players on Zoom during media sessions, ESPN reported.

In August, Rodgers responded that he’s been “immunized” when asked about his vaccination status during a media session.

“You know, there’s a lot of conversation around it, around the league, and a lot of guys who have made statements and not made statements, owners who have made statements,” Rodgers said at the time. “There’s guys on the team that haven’t been vaccinated. I think it’s a personal decision. I’m not going to judge those guys. There are guys that’ve been vaccinated that have contracted COVID. It’s an interesting issue that I think we’re going to see played out the entire season.”

Each team is responsible for enforcing COVID-19 protocols, an NFL spokesperson said in a statement to ABC News.

“Failure to properly enforce the protocols has resulted in discipline being assessed against individual clubs in the past,” the spokesperson said. “The league is aware of the current situation in Green Bay and will be reviewing with the Packers.”

Under NFL protocols, unvaccinated players are tested daily, while vaccinated players are tested weekly. Unvaccinated players who test positive for COVID-19 must isolate for at least 10 days. NFL teams could face potential forfeits and lost paychecks for outbreaks among unvaccinated players.

From Oct. 3 to 16, the most recent COVID-19 reporting period from the NFL, there were 14 new confirmed positive tests among players and 26 among personnel, with an overall incidence rate of 0.6%.

As of Oct. 21, 94.1% of NFL players were vaccinated, the league said.

(LAS VEGAS) — NFL wide receiver Henry Ruggs III was driving 156 mph seconds before he slammed his Corvette into the back of a Toyota SUV in Las Vegas early Tuesday morning, killing the driver, according to a police report.

Ruggs, who was released by the Las Vegas Raiders the same day as the accident, made his first court appearance on Wednesday showing visible cuts to the bridge of his nose and wearing a neck collar. The 22-year-old, who police said appeared impaired at the crash scene, has been charged with DUI resulting in death and reckless driving resulting in death. He did not enter a plea.

“It’s about choices, and if someone decides to drive under the influence, and drive in excess of 150 mph, we’re going to seek justice,” Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said at a press conference after Ruggs’ hearing. “This is a tragic and sad day. It’s a tragedy because a woman lost her life and a lot of other people are suffering. It’s also sad and tragic that Mr. Ruggs is potentially losing an entire career and facing a stiff prison sentence.”

The 23-year-old driver of the Toyota Rav4 who died in the crash has not been identified. A dog in the vehicle also was killed, according to a police report.

The police report tells of several eyewitnesses to the accident rushing to pull the woman from the burning vehicle, but she was trapped and rescuers were unable to help her as they were overcome by smoke and flames.

Ruggs refused a field sobriety test, according to police, but prosecutor Eric Bauman said in court Wednesday that he had a blood alcohol level of 0.161% — more than twice the legal limit in Nevada.

Prosecutors also said they found a loaded handgun on the floor of Ruggs’ Corvette.

Ruggs’ passenger, Kiara Je’nai Kilgo-Washington, 22, also suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the crash.

“Life is about choices. Mr. Ruggs made a choice,” Wolfson said. “And the difficulty I have is there’s so many alternatives. There’s ride-sharing. There’s a designated driver, there’s a taxi, there’s so many alternatives, but Mr. Ruggs made a choice and he’s going to have to live with the consequences.”

Wolfson said the minimum sentence for Ruggs would be two years, with a possible maximum of 46 years, though that could increase if gun charges are filed.

The former first-round pick, considered a rising star in the league, was leading the team in receiving yards and tied for the lead in receiving touchdowns.

Ruggs posted $150,000 bail. His next court appearance is Nov. 10.
