Aaron Rodgers Gets The Finger, Then Gets Weird

Rodgers claims right after he ran for a TD, he saw a woman, presumably a bears fan give him the double bird. He says that’s what prompted him to yell “I still own you. I still own you.” After the game, Aaron explained the moment. Sort of.

“Sometimes you blackout on the field, in a good way,” Rodgers said. I’ve definitely blacked out from a concussion, which isn’t a good way. I looked up in the stands in the front row and all I saw was a woman giving me the double bird. I’m not sure exactly what came out of my mouth then.”
Hey Aaron you’re one Moderna dose away from being Kyrie.
