The Green Bay Packers' COVID-19 protocols are being reviewed by the NFL after Aaron Rodgers, who was previously believed to have been vaccinated, tested positive on Wednesday.
The league issued a statement on Wednesday in response to questions over the Packers’ protocols following the revelation that Rodgers had not been vaccinated.
"The primary responsibility for enforcement of the COVID protocols within club facilities rests with each club," the statement read, via NFL Network. "Failure to properly enforce the protocols has resulted in discipline being assessed against individual clubs in the past. The league is aware of the current situation in Green Bay and will be reviewing the matter with the Packers."
