Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers came out swinging at NFL insider Dianna Russini, tying her to a tampering scandal related to Mike Vrabel during an ESPN appearance with Pat McAfee. Rodgers ripped into ESPN for a blanket refusal to address the story, pointedly telling McAfee that "nobody can fucking talk about it" on Monday.
The fiery burst landed during the same week Rodgers invoked while answering a Senate hearing question. Rodgers has previously sparred with Fauci on a number of occasions. The latest on-air rant fits into Rodgers' consistent pattern of railing against the media and federal health officials.
