DraftKings Caves to Rodgers Refund Push, FanDuel Resisting
The gambling public wants an Aaron Rodgers refund and DraftKings looks like they will be giving them just that. FanDuel appears less willing. The outcry comes after Rodgers went down early Monday night.
Keith Denis tweeted:
"You didn’t refund the rodgers boost last night? I will be taking my gambling elsewhere going forward @FanDuel_Support."
Stocks tweeted out:
"@FanDuel_Support @FDSportsbook is trash lol every other book gave free bet refunds for rodgers legs. this just shows how much you do not value your customers."
Ob Ya Favor tweeted:
"@FDSportsbook, @FanDuel_Support REFUND ARRON RODGERS BET , HE PLAYED 4 SNAPS."
And Trevor Wright wrote:
"Bye @FDSportsbook, @FanDuel How do y’all not refund the boost and all Rodgers bets? lost a VIP because you chose greed over what’s right. Y’all acting like you won’t just make the money back next week Clown Car Company. You’ll regret this decision I’m sure of it."
DraftKings decision to refund the Rodgers bets seems to have deflected attention away from their disastrous 911 "Never Forget Bet" that had folks across the Twittersphere enraged.
On his fourth snap of the season, Jets new quarterback Aaron Rodgers suffered what is feared to be a significant Achilles tendon injury.
Rodgers will have an MRI on Tuesday, according to coach Robert Saleh, but the picture is grim. The Jets did manage to win against their division rivals, the Buffalo Bills, 22-16 in overtime.
New York has gone from 18-1 odds to 24-1 odds to win the Super Bowl following Rodgers injury.
