Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold said early in June that he wasn’t vaccinated and was still “doing research.” Whatever happened in the weeks after he changed his tune, because today he’s considered fully-vaccinated after getting his second shot on July 16.
Not everyone is going along, though. Today, linebacker Denzel Perryman told the media that he’s not vaccinated and has no plans to get it.

Perryman signed a two-year deal with the Panthers early in free agency, worth $6 million.
He isn’t alone in his obstinance. Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley has become the face of those players refusing to get the vaccine.
