Article doesn't say who, but apparently 13 teams have reached the 85% vaccinated threshold. That's a lot better than I would have thought. Hopefully the Chiefs are one of them.

660 thousand minimum salary. For so many a one year stand. Get vaccinated.

So with this strong of a stand on vaccine for players what’s next half to have it to attend a game?

I wonder if it's implied that players will have to the new monthly/bi-monthly boosters they're talking about as well?
And holding players' money and chances at the playoffs over their heads seems......a little tyrannical, doesn't it? |

Vaccine or not, it's unlikely to be a big issue. |

While the penalties are pretty stiff, it's hard for me to imagine a ton of games being cancelled this year. Players sitting out? Sure. But I think most teams are 50%+ vaccinated, so you'd think that would prevent too many cases where a game has to be actually cancelled.

I'm sure they can justify not paying players for a game that didn't exist. Again, I don't really think this is gonna matter, but I'm pretty confident the league's lawyers have signed off on it. |

When there was discussion about possible canceled games last year I remember part of it involved nobody getting paid.

Unless it becomes a major problem, I don't see too much issue with rescheduling. Did it fine last season.

So, not just the players on the team that causes the forfeit don't get paid, but BOTH team's players don't get paid. I completely misread that the first time I went through it.
