“DeAndre Hopkins Literally Sh*t And Pi**ed Over His Hotel Room But He Won’t Get The Vaccine”: NFL Fans Blast Cardinals WR For Disapproving New NFL Covid Rules
DeAndre Hopkins has vehemently spoken out against the NFL, in all essence, making Covid vaccines mandatory for all NFL players.
The pandemic is still raging on the US, and with the NFL set to host games at full capacity next year, they want to ensure that everything runs smoothly.
While the NFL can’t control fans and external forces, they can control their teams and players. Therefore, they released a memo dictating what could happen if players don’t vaccinate themselves.
Last year, the NFL repeatedly had to reschedule games due to Covid outbreaks within teams, but this is something they won’t be doing this year. As a result, the team responsible for the Covid outbreak may have to forfeit the game entirely.
Here’s more from today’s memo, which also says the team responsible for a canceled game because of an outbreak among unvaccinated players/staff will be responsible for financial losses and subject to potential discipline from the commissioner. Wow. pic.twitter.com/Q86a2WcG1K
