Travis Kelce didn't appear too fazed by Aaron Rodgers calling him "Mr. Pfizer" on the Pat McAfee show. However, in his response, he did remind Rodgers who signed the anti-vax QB's paychecks. “I thought it was pretty good. I mean, with the stache, I look like a guy named Mr. Pfizer. Who knew I’d get into the vax wars with Aaron Rodgers, man, Mr. Pfizer vs. the Johnson and Johnson family," Kelce said. The last comment was a reference to the Jets, Rodgers' team, being owned by the heir to multinational conglomerate, Johnson & Johnson. Of the many products J&J produces, pharmaceuticals and a one-shot COVID vaccine are some of them.
Rodgers dubbed Kelce "Mr Pfizer" due to Kelce appearing in a series of ads encouraging people to get the new COVID vaccine. “Mr. Pfizer, we kinda shut him down a little bit. He didn’t have a crazy impact game. Obviously he had some yards and stuff," Rodgers told McAfee this week. Kelce had a team-leading 60 yards on six catches against the Jets last week. The Chiefs scored an ugly 23-20 road win.
