GREEN BAY, WI – Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers got a little emotional on Sunday when he returned to the field against the Seattle Seahawks
Rodgers was emotional upon his return to the football field on Sunday as the three-time most valuable player helped his team to a 17-0 win over the Seattle Seahawks in the National Football League.
Rodgers was removed from the NFL’s reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday after going through a mandatory 10-day quarantine following a positive COVID-19 test last week.
The 37-year-old, who is unvaccinated, sat out the Packers’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last Sunday due to the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols, which call for a mandatory 10-day quarantine period for unvaccinated players who test positive, Reuters reported.
“A lot of emotions, for sure,” Rodgers said after the game. “Good to be back with the guys, good to be back at home, good to be back on the field, really. Most emotions from the whole night was probably walking off the field after the game.”Definitely got me a little misty heading off. So that was good to feel all those emotions and good to be back with the guys.”
