Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and Prevea Health, a medical clinic group, are ending their partnership, the company announced in a joint statement on Saturday. The decision comes after earlier this week, Rodgers tested positive for COVID-19 and revealed that he was unvaccinated against the virus.

Rodgers had been a spokesperson for Prevea Health, which is headquartered in Green Bay, Wisconsin, since 2012.

In the statement, the company further wrote, “Prevea Health remains deeply committed to protecting its patients, staff, providers and communities amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.”

“This includes encouraging and helping all eligible populations to become vaccinated against COVID-19 to prevent the virus from further significantly impacting lives and livelihoods.”

The three-time NFL MVP, who has led Green Bay to a 7-1 record this season, will not play in the Packers game against the Kansas City Chiefs this weekend due to COVID-19 protocols, the team’s head coach, Matt LaFleur, announced on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, earlier in the week, Rodgers, while speaking on SiriusXM’s “Pat McAfee Show” on Friday, said: “I’m not an anti-vax, 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.”

He also expressed disappointment over the treatment he had received in the media. “I realize I’m in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now,” Rodgers said, CNN reported. “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.”

Rodgers told McAfee he has concerns about potential fertility issues had he taken one of the vaccinations.

Rodgers was asked at an August 26 media session whether he had been vaccinated.

“Yeah, I’ve been immunized. You know, there is a lot of conversation around it, around the league, and a lot of guys who have made statements and not made statements, owners who have made statements. There are guys on the team who have not been vaccinated,” Rodgers replied, Associated Press reported.
