Twitter feeds and rumor mills are burning to the ground with the rising buzz that Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers may have a concussion after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit from Chicago’s Julius Peppers in last Sunday’s NFC Championship Game.
Rodgers, who has already suffered concussions this season, refuted the claims that his brain was mush when addressing the media this week.
“I didn’t have a concussion,” Rodgers said in comments distributed by the team. “I want to dispel that rumor. No concussion. I was fine. Yeah. Helmets are designed to prevent concussions, I think.”
You think, huh? The one you wear does. The one that holds my Sweet-Chili-Heat Doritos on Sundays does not. Let’s just hope, for Green Bay’s sake, Rodgers didn’t confuse the two.
Shawn Doherty of The Capital Times is one of the growing number of media members who are buying into the Cheesehead cover-up conspiracy theory. He’s a health reporter and claims that Rodgers’ appearance following the hit fit the bill for a concussed QB. Without bugging the Packers’ trainers’ room, there’s no real way to know if Rodgers is really messed up or not.
Do you think Green Bay is keeping a tight lip on Rodgers’ status and hoping the extra week off will help him clear the cobwebs? Or is this just bye-week bullshit from a bunch of reporters who have exhausted every possible angle for Super XLV?
