Quarterbacks aren't known for getting head injuries. Quarterbacks rarely get hit at all, and when it does happen they get hit with the lightest possible force. Aaron Rodgers is probably just his natural unlikable self.
He had a concussion in 2018 where he lost vision for a full minute
Edit: two in 2010 as well. He described his vision on one eye going “metallic” after one of them. That just covers his professional career; guy’s brain is probably mush.
Oof, yeah, then I stand corrected. It's possible he may be naturally unlikable, but it's also very possible that head injuries made him a worse person. Scary stuff.
They've changed to rules a lot in this area. QB sackings used to be gladiatorial events. I think Rogers probably experienced at least some of the bad old days.
I'm really not trying to be overly mean here, but you have no fucking idea what you're talking about. Aaron Rodgers has had MULTIPLE season ending contact related injuries including a badly broken collar bone. Just because they are currently enforcing better protection for quarterbacks doesn't really mean shit. By the time an athlete makes it to the NFL they may have already suffered a significant number of concussions. It's a violent sport, and CTE is a serious concern for everyone on the field, except maybe the kicker/punter.
Favre retired cause he was older than sin. I didn’t realize it had anything to do with CTE. But I suppose that could explain some of his more stupid behavior.
CTEs go brrrrr

Tell that to Tua
As I said, not never, but it's rare. I'm not aware of any incident of Rodgers taking a notably hard hit to the head, let alone getting a concussion.

That's absolutely not true. Favre famously retired due to effects of CTE.

Brady played until he was 44. Favre was 41.
