Around the NFL: Week 1

[mooby]

The offseason thread is still going strong even though we're past the preseason now, so let's get ready for week 1.

Not sure if Jamison Crowder is vaxxed or not but he tested positive so now his status for next week is in question.

It's almost football season.

Cowboys’ Pro-Bowl G Zack Martin has been placed on the Reserve-COVID list and is out for Thursday night’s regular-season opener against Tampa Bay

I have a feeling that the Bucs are going to steam roll the Cowboys on Thursday.

Apparently one of the backups is out also as a close contact, it isn't going to be pretty on Thursday..... Dak is not going to get a chance to get into a rythm, I can't wait for the season to start

Dallas is going to get curb stomped by Tampa.

Question…is the NFL testing vaccinated players? My understanding getting the vaccine rightfully eliminated this step.

If they weren't, how would vaccinated players like Zach Martin know they tested positive?

It's my understanding vaxxed players get tested once a week and unvaxxed get tested every day.

That was my understanding of the process, do we know that Martin was actually vaccinated?

Because of the return-to-play protocols, Martin will not be cleared in time to play, although he is vaccinated. A fully vaccinated player can return to play in five days if he does not have symptoms following two negative tests separated by 24 hours. An unvaccinated player faces at least a 10-day quarantine.

I got my info from ESPN. Assuming Martin doesn't care that people know he's vaccinated.

Talked or text with number of NFL coaches/execs who are nervous about COVID-19 testing today with the number of players who visited their former college teams’ opening games (and social gatherings) this past weekend.
