NFL Currently Facing Big Challenges

Earlier in the year, the NFL forced players to be vaccinated; if players refused, they would have to follow strict protocols. Vaccinated players had no restrictions whatsoever, but unvaccinated players had to wear masks.

When they were not suited up at the team’s facility, they couldn’t travel on the team’s planes or even work out at the same time as vaccinated players. Unvaccinated football players also were not allowed to leave their hotel rooms during away games either.

NFL players who are unvaccinated also have to wear colorful bracelets that let other players know they are unvaccinated. So, essentially, the NFL is treating unvaccinated players as if they are untouchables.

It appears the NFL’s extreme policy didn’t work at all, because now, there are several reports that show 106 players who are on the COVID-19 reserve; out of the 106, a good amount are vaccinated.

The NFL is a clear example on how the COVID-19 vaccine cannot prevent a person from getting the virus. At this time, nobody on air is saying vaccines can prevent COVID-19.

They are backtracking and saying they prevent a person from getting sicker from COVID-19.
