NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe has seemingly had enough of Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers, the reigning MVP, was a guest on the Joe Rogan Experience last year when he detailed his experience over his vaccination status. The quarterback had also said at a press conference when asked if he was vaccinated that he was 'immunized.'

Sharpe, while speaking on FOX Sports' Undisputed, did not hold back in what he thought of the Packers shot-caller.

"Okay, you want to use the term immunized? Okay, fine, but you know you were supposed to mask up around other people in the building at a press conference," Sharpe said.

"If you want to blame the woke in the cancel culture...No, this was all about Aaron Rodgers thinking that the NFL COVID policy was not applicable to him. Nothing more. Nothing less," he added.

The Hall of Famer then proceeded to say that Rodgers is an incredible player and will likely be one of the greatest, but as a person he leaves a lot to be desired.

"Look, there's no denying the guy's talent is good," Sharpe said. "He's a top five quarterback. When it's all said and done, you can make a case, he might be a top five player if he can get another championship."
"But as a person, he's a horrible person," he added. "He's a liar, he's arrogant. He's aloof, for lack of a better word. He's a prick. And I'm so over him."

We all know what happened last year. The Packers quarterback said he was immunized and many took that to mean he was vaccinated. However, when the reigning MVP contracted the virus, he was forced to sit out for 10 days (which was what was required for unvaccinated players).

This caught the media's attention and the outrage built up from there. The player missed just one game and returned, but many couldn't get past the fact that he had supposedly lied about his status.

The incident likely still sticks in the paws of many people as it happened at the pandemic's height. Some people had forgotten about it and had moved on, but with the quarterback's interview with Rogan bringing it up again, it was thrust into the spotlight once more.
