The NFL is doing its best to get players vaccinated without a mandate. That doesn’t mean the effort isn’t inconsistent and self-defeating at times, as everything else the league does.
Panthers linebacker Jermaine Carter made a great point on Twitter today, pointing out that he can’t meet with his vaccinated family, and yet he has to practice against the Colts in a couple of weeks – one of the teams with the league’s lowest vaccination rates.
I can’t see my vaccinated family but I can practice against one of the least vaccinated teams 🥴 I’ll see you in a couple weeks baby girl ❤️ https://t.co/JCLu2KR6wg

Accoridng to the latest reports, Indianapolis has a 60% rate, which is the second-lowest in the NFL.
It is what it is, but it’s not fair.
