Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers took aim at NFL insider Dianna Russini, saying she was involved in a tampering scandal related to Mike Vrabel during an ESPN appearance with Pat McAfee. Rodgers ripped into ESPN for refusing to address the story, pointedly telling McAfee that "nobody can fucking talk about it" on Monday.
The explosive on-air remarks landed during the same week Rodgers brought up Anthony Fauci while answering a Senate hearing question. Rodgers has publicly clashed with Fauci on a number of occasions. The latest on-air rant fits neatly into Rodgers' growing tendency of voicing criticism the media and federal health officials.
