The seahawks test their vaxxed players every few days. That is an owner and organization that gets it. Competent decision making. Attention to detail with one goal - win games.

Apparently the NFLPA wanted every day testing for vaxxed or unvaxxed.

Its the new normal, do the best you can under the circumstances.

Yep, I remember when that story first broke. How dumb, to not test more often. It's more than likely the vaccinated players spreading this so rampantly.

This article is from before the season began:

"Scenario 1: For up to six days, the virus spreads throughout the facility with no one knowing. When it gets to the following Monday, the team resumes testing and 10+ players and staff test positive. Those 10+ people now are in doubt for the following game. Some may be able to get cleared before, but some won’t; and that team will be missing key players"
