Their body, their choice. Is that not how the saying goes?

and could come be a huge detriment to the team.

It will be interesting to see how this all plays out, that's for sure.

to be fair.

hospitals have been doing this with the flu shot for years. so precedent is there. not saying if it is right or wrong.

It's really sad that we can't come together as a country at a time of need. I'm fairly certain that the current generation could not have polarized and in a non-bipartisan way to do the right thing, during trying times like WW II, or any other crisis we have faced in the last 60+ years.

Mandated vaccination of school children is how we have removed measles and mumps from our country. Granted, it is done because kids are required to be in school, the rights of the many outweigh the rights of the few. Vaccinations have been around for 50 + years, there wasnt any controversy until the internet.

Especially when the opinion shows have taken over what people perceive as real news.

Vaccination numbers keep ticking up across the NFL:

NFL chief medical officer Allen Sills says 80% of players have taken at least one COVID-19 shot.

Nine teams over 90%.

Only five teams at less than 70%.

NFL chief medical officer Allen Sills says he hopes that players are listening to the right people on the vaccine: "Let's not get information from Instagram or Facebook posts."

Minnesota Vikings OL Coach Rick Dennison is out of a job after he refused to get a COVID vaccine.

Breaking: Rick Dennison is out as Vikings offensive line coach / run game coordinator after refusing the COVID-19 vaccine. MIN will promote assistant OL coach Phil Rauscher to replace Dennison, hired Auburn special teams analyst Ben Steele as an assistant.

Dennison was Gary Kubiak's offensive coordinator in Houston and Denver, and is a trusted line guru across the Shanahan coaching tree. In the year the Vikings lose Kubiak, this only compounds that loss.

So the COVID-19 rules already having a sizable impact.

Minnesota Vikings OL Coach Rick Dennison is a moron.

My own opinion is that the Colts should not be giving out 20 million dollar contracts to people who would not get vaccinated unless there is a clause that the Colts can nullify this contract if that player gets COVID. We don't need to be saddled with a huge contract to some idiot that may lose us games all by himself or turns out to be a long hauler who can't play for shit
