About 68% of NFL players have now received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMWhile players are exempt, Tier 1 and Tier 2 staffers are still required to get vaccinated, and Pelissero reports that virtually all Tier 1 and 2 personnel are vaccinated. Coaches and other staff who aren’t fully vaccinated won’t be eligible for Tier 1 or 2 status and will not be allowed to work directly with players. The NFL is incentivizing players to get their shots through means like providing a vaccinated player that tests positive for the virus their per-game roster bonuses. But if an unvaccinated player tests positive and misses time, they’ll run the risk of losing their bonus money.
