The NFL, like the NBA and other professional sports leagues, has a strict policy on ad placement in post game press conferences. The league doesn’t have a marketing deal with Crush, it does business with Pepsi. Grape Crush is a product of the Dr. Pepper Snapple Group.
That didn’t stop Aaron Rodgers from sending a message to the Minnesota Vikings when he took a sip of Grape Crush during his post game news conference.

Rodgers casually sipped his Grape Crush soda while answering questions Sunday following the Packers 24-21 victory over Minnesota. Rodgers threw for 209 yards and two touchdowns in the win.
