Generally you can say you are required to have the vaccine to say enter the building or something similar.

The NFL did not mandate the vaccine. They put rules in place that have no factual basis. They are punishing the unvaccinated players. They also have threatened the unvaccinated players with forfeiting games. All of this is illegal.
Vaccinated players can spread the virus but they say it doesn't matter, once you test negative 2 times you are good.
They also say if a unvaccinated player test positive, they will not reschedule a game. How do they know where the unvaccinated player got it? Did he get it from one of the vaccinated players?
The NFL was fine until they started setting up different rules to punish players.

Would you please cite your precedent to differentiate an Emergency Use Authorization from an FDA Approval during a declared Public Health Emergency?
The simple fact is that the EUA does everything needed to make what the NFL is doing perfectly legal. As far as vaccinated players go they shouldn't be testing them at all, there's no point to it. Just keep the record of the unvaccinated and when they get the virus then quarantine and fine them.

A vaccinated player can still get and spread covid, so why are they allowing separate rules for them? The same 24 hour or 10 day rule should apply to both. The league is basically saying it doesn't matter if you have covid now, you can spread it to the whole team.

Because unvaccinated players are refusing to take the proper step necessary to protect the League and game therefore when the inevitable happens there should and will be consequences.
It's never been legal to force it on people who have an exemption, medical or religious, even with an approved vaccine. The FDA is also ignoring rules around # of adverse events, they pulled the previous vaccine after 25 deaths. You can't get a medical one because if they give it to you they will be attacked from above. Plenty of doctors will say don't take it but they won't sign an exemption. They also are ignoring religious exemptions.
Just because everyone is just going along with it doesn't make it legal. You could easily sign your right to sue away if you got sick and there is no reason for the mandates. Why does everyone have to have the vaccine if those with the vaccine are protected? Vaccinated people still get and transmit virus but they are ignoring that and only saying we will fine, force you to sit out 10 days, and not pay you for unvaccinated players.
