Aaron Rodgers is the favorite to win the NFL’s MVP award this year, but there’s at least one vote he won’t be getting.
Sports writer Hub Arkush said Tuesday on 670 The Score in Chicago that the 38-year-old Rodgers won’t have his vote because he’s a “bad guy” and a “jerk.”
According to Pro Football Talk, Arkus is one of 50 media members the Associated Press gives a vote to for the MVP award that the NFL treats as its official MVP and awards at the league’s annual NFL Honors event.
Rodgers, who said last week that he wouldn’t rule out retiring after the season, became embroiled in controversy after it was revealed he contracted COVID-19 after not being vaccinated while saying in August during the preseason that he was “immunized.” Since that discovery, Rodgers has continued to defend his decision not to be vaccinated.
