Let's get on topic, please. 

Vaccine efficacy can be discussed in the COVID thread in the political forum, or in the non-political COVID thread in Fargin's Flyby forum. 

We needn't muddy this thread with debate over vaccine efficacy and approval opinions.

Efficacy and approval opinions aside, those can be debated in the forums mentioned above - players don't typically know what's in the shots that they get, nor do they care.  These are people that know they are at risk of traumatic brain injury, broken bones, torn ligaments etc. every time they take the field.  By and large, they are willing to do whatever it takes in order to be able to play and in order to help the team...

It can't be a surprise, considering the NFL rules regarding potential forfeits and unpaid games that vaccine status is going to be a factor in deciding who gets cut, especially if there are 2 players that are close in talent, salary and measurables.
