Tom Brady sidesteps Aaron Rodgers vax question
Tom Brady revealed he was battling coronavirus after the Bucs' Super Bowl run
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Tom Brady had nothing to offer when asked about Aaron Rodgers’ comments on forgoing the coronavirus vaccine on Monday.
Brady revealed in September he dealt with contracting COVID-19 after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won the Super Bowl. Brady is presumably vaccinated against the illness, as the Buccaneers said in the offseason that the entire team was 100% vaccinated.

But when it came to others, Brady had no opinion when he was asked on his SiriusXM podcast "Let’s Go!"
"Of course, I figured you'd ask me about this. I figured out I'm not commenting on Aaron Rodgers' personal situation. Far be it for me to tell anyone what to put in their body," Brady told legendary sportscaster Jim Gray.
"But by the way, the ‘TB12 Method’ is available in paperback wherever nutritional books are sold and I'll leave it at that. ... Nope, just thought about it and obviously that's how I feel and that's all I'm going to say."

Rodgers rattled off several reasons why he chose not to get vaccinated in an interview on "The Pat McAfee Show," including an allergy he said he has from an ingredient in mRNA vaccines. He said he also talked to his friend Joe Rogan about the treatments the podcaster took when he was diagnosed with COVID and admitted one of the medicines he was on was ivermectin.
"I realize I'm in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now," Rodgers told former NFL punter McAfee and his former linebacker teammate A.J. Hawk. "So, before my final nail gets put in my cancel culture casket, I think I would like to set the record straight on so many of the blatant lies that are out there about myself."

"I'm not an anti-vaxx, flat-earther. … I have an allergy to an ingredient that's in the mRNA vaccines. I found a long-term immunization protocol to protect myself, and I'm very proud of the research that went into that," the Packers star added.
