'COVID Optics:' Confused NFL Fans React to Erin Andrews Conducting Socially Distanced Interview with Aaron Rodgers - Then Hugging Him!

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers broke the illustrious franchise’s record for touchdown passes on Christmas Day. However, many NFL fans were talking about the socially distanced interview with the star QB following the game.

Rodgers threw for 202 yards to lead the Packers in a tight 24-22 win over the Cleveland Browns at Lambeau Field on Saturday night. Rodgers also tossed three touchdowns — giving him a total of 445 career TDs — breaking Brett Favre’s franchise record for touchdowns.

Fox Sports reporter Erin Andrews interviewed Rodgers after the game. The post-game interview with Rodgers and the NFL sideline reporter was socially distanced by at least six feet. However, moments after the interview, perhaps when the reporter thought that the cameras weren’t rolling, Rodgers and Andrews embraced in a hug.

NFL fans reacted with confusion over the hug that took place a mere seconds after the socially distanced interview.
