Packers, Aaron Rodgers, and COVID-19: Keep health in mind first and foremost

It’s far too easy to get caught up in everything else going on and what this means for the Packers as a football team. But we can’t lose sight that Rodgers’ health is first and foremost in this situation. Regardless of how we feel about the way he handled everything up to this point and everything that went down over the summer, let’s hope his health is in good shape.

We haven’t heard from Rodgers, how he’s feeling, or whether he has any symptoms so let’s cross our fingers for the time being. Remember, he is a human being and we want to make sure he and everyone else don’t suffer any long-term effects of this dangerous disease.
