NFL teams are not going to let borderline players who haven’t received a vaccine mess up their 2021 season.
According to Chad Speck – the president of the Allegiant Athletic Agency – an NFL team reached out to a free agent client, but once they found out the unnamed player was unvaccinated, they cut off communication.
“A #NFL team called today interested in working out & signing a free agent client,” Speck said on Twitter. “When they found out he wasn’t vaccinated they were no longer interested. The rules the #NFL implemented in reality mandates the vaccine for back end roster type players.”
Earlier this week, it was reported that Minnesota Vikings assistant coach Rick Dennison was no longer with the team after he refused to get vaccine.
Arizona Cardinals star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and several others also voiced their displeasure with the NFL and its stance on vaccinations in a Twitter rant earlier this week.
