For Shannon Sharpe, the legendary TE, this all was a bunch of bluffs!

The unclear air around Aaron Rodgers’ vaccination status and whether is he still lying.
The prime reason Aaron Rodgers passed on the vaccines was that he was allergic to polyethylene glycol, or PEG. They are active components found in Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. But did not want to inject himself with the J&J vaccine because he heard of cases where the vaccines affected people adversely.
