In addition, players on both teams will not be paid for the lost contest, and the team responsible for the cancelled game due to unvaccinated players will cover financial losses and be subject to potential discipline from the Commissioner's office.


"We do not anticipate adding a '19th week' to accommodate games that cannot be rescheduled within the current 18 weeks of the regular season," the memo stated in a highlighted portion.

Seattle was the league’s only team without a positive COVID-19 test last year.

And what about the Covid outbreaks with vaccinated players?

what then? Just because you get the vaccine doesn’t mean you can’t get Covid, nor is it even proven to deter the virus or minimize its impact if you do get it.

this is just stupid policy and some players have already mentioned retirement as a result.

you can’t take drugs when we know what they do to the body, but take this vaccine that we rushed to develop that may or may not kill you, we have no idea how your body will react to it, and, oh, by the way, it doesn’t guarantee you won’t get Covid.
