Conservative Anchor Blames Aaron Rodgers Injury On Psychedelics: 'How About Going To Church…Ayahuasca Tea Is A Crummy Substitute For God'
Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
Star quarterback Aaron Rodgers' season-ending injury has impacted the betting odds for the New York Jets and could affect its postseason drought. The injury occurred during the opening Monday Night Football game of the 2023 NFL season. The incident has sparked criticism from conservative television host Greg Kelly, who blamed Rodgers' past use of psychedelics, including ayahuasca tea. Following Rodgers' injury, the betting odds at sportsbooks such as DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:DKNG) shifted dramatically, with the Jets falling to +6,000 to win Super Bowl LVIII. The Jets' loss to the Cowboys further pushed the odds down to +7,000.
