NBA champion
I am not sure that belongs in the career highlights and awards section for Rodgers. He is a minority owner. He isn't the prime owner. It's mentioned in his bio. Billy Krystal for instance has a ring for the Arizona Diamondbacks winning the World Series in 2001 but he doesn't have a career highlights box saying he is a world series champion (he played 1 day for the yankees too)
2019 season
How about adding he was rated 16th by his fellow teammates in NFL Top 100 Players of 2020?
- No. He's been #1 before and it isn't there.

In the NFL records section it lists the record "Most seasons with 40 touchdown passes" twice. Once with (3) and once with (5) . I do not know which one is correct but logically speaking they cannot both be true. 2601:407:C400:2FF0:F1DF:F889:EFBF:2F80 (talk) 01:54, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
Not done. Assuming you mean the infobox (sidebar on the right), you might want to read that again. One's "total touchdowns" and the other is "touchdown passes". There's a difference there. ◢ Ganbaruby! (talk) 06:29, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

Aaron Rogers' performance in the 2021-2022 NFL Season is limited to the first game in this article, and six have been played. The current article leaves his position as a starter into question, and he has not only been a starter but the Packers have won five straight games since. If his performance this season is to be left blank until it is finished, I have no objection, but as of now it is framed and stated in an entirely incomplete manner. His participation and performance in the current season should either be erased or completed, as of now it is neither, to the point of subjective animosity.

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 10:44, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Pat McAfee interview
Rodgers appeared on McAfee today and explained very logically and coherently why he decided that it was best for his health not to get the jab, including that he is allergic to ingredients in two of the shots, and the third shot (J&J) was pulled from the market because of its dangerous side effects. He also mentioned that he has already cured himself of the strongest virus symptoms with Ivermectin and that he sees the that most of the impetus behind the virus push is politically-motivated. I suggest adding a few sentences on all that to the article. https://www.si.com/nfl/2021/11/05/aaron-rodgers-interview-pat-mcafee-vaccination-status-covid-19-immunized-ivermectin-joe-rogan — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.255.69.229 (talk) 22:57, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
- His COVID situation has since been added.—Bagumba (talk) 04:21, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
Lack of balance
While Aaron Rodgers is of course American, Wikipedia is international and should avoid taking a national point of view. Internationally, Aaron Rodgers is only known for his conspiracy theories about Covid-19 and his lies about his own medical status. This should be mentioned in the lede, and probably have it's own section in the body of the article. Jeppiz (talk) 11:46, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Jeppiz: I agree it can be expanded in the body, quite possibly into its own section given his recent sitdown interview from today. The lede is a representation of the body though, and until it is expanded, it should not be included in the lede. On a side note, I'm not sure it's fair to say Aaron Rodgers is "only known for his conspiracy theories about COVID-19" internationally. Surely international sourcing has covered more than just the COVID-19 bit concerning Rodgers. ––FormalDude talk 11:55, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- @FormalDude: I agree with all you say. Of course NFL fans around the world would know him bit (speaking as a European) NFL nevers hits the news here apart from Super Bowl, it's not among the 30 most covered sports. Having had a look at several different European media (in the UK, France, Germany and Sweden), the only articles about Rodgers are for conspiracy theories, lies about his status, and his Covid (anecdotally, I had never heard about him before, and I think it's safe to assume the same goes for most people outside the US). Jeppiz (talk) 12:10, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- A relevant guideline is MOS:LEADBIO:
What is most recent is not necessarily what is most noteworthy: new information should be carefully balanced against old, with due weight accorded to each.
—Bagumba (talk) 14:19, 6 November 2021 (UTC)- Jeppiz, please don't editorialize. Wikipedia is not a owned by Big Pharma. It is neutral and does not take a side on the vaccine controversy. 96.255.69.229 (talk) 17:24, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- To the IP: First, nobody except you has mentioned that, ethe rest of us are discussing media coverage. Second, you're wrong Wikipedia - read WP:NPOV. Wikipedia is neutral in the sense that we report scientific consensus. WP is in no way ever "neutral" between science and conspiracy theories. Jeppiz (talk) 21:59, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

"Internationally, Aaron Rodgers is only known for his conspiracy theories about Covid-19 and his lies about his own medical status" Your whole request is politically charged and pathetic. Aaron rodgers is probably known well for his American football achievements throughout the western world. Consider picking up a hobby. - IHeartVeronica
Nba Champion (As manager) Should be added to the career highlights section.
Because technically as a owner of the Bucks he got a ring. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IHeartVeronica (talk • contribs) 02:32, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
Categories
Aaron Rodgers is currently placed in the Category:COVID-19 conspiracy theorists, but I'm not sure if he fits into that category. Just because he's unvaccinated doesn't necessarily make him a conspiracy theorist. 2001:569:55E1:8900:FDCB:2AC:B0CA:93B5 (talk) 03:38, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
- You're right that being unvaccinated doesn't make him a conspiracy theorist, but he's not just unvaccinated. Multiple reliable sourcing are reporting how Rodger's has peddled several lies about COVID-19 and vaccines. I added a bit about it to the article just now. ––Formal

2021 Season
"For this behavior he earned the nicknames 'Kaaron Rodgers' and 'Throw Rogan'."
Could be added to the current paragraph on the 2021 season. 172.92.177.175 (talk) 05:35, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
Done. ––Formal
