Cam Newton backs Aaron Rodgers, claiming NFL 'players, coaches and executives' used fake COVID vaccine cards

It escaped vast attention last week when Aaron Rodgers suggested during his appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" that NFL people got past league COVID-19 protocols by obtaining "fake" vaccination cards. And now, former quarterback Cam Newton is joining that chorus.

Newton, appearing on his "4th & 1" podcast on Monday, addressed the 2021 NFL protocols that required all team employees – players, coaches, staff, everyone – to get Covid-19 shots so as to avoid stringent frequent testing in order to enter team facilities.
