Washington Football Team: New COVID Policy Impact?

Locked On Washington Football Team discusses COVID, safeties and Ryan Fitzpatrick.

The NFL informed teams Thursday that any games that would be unable to be rescheduled because of a COVID-19 outbreak inside organizations would result in a forfeit by the affected team.

This raises red flags for teams like the Washington Football Team, who have fewer than 50 percent of its players fully vaccinated.

It also sparked some backlash around the league from some of its main stars, notably Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and Los Angeles Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey.

This came just a week after Buffalo Bills receiver Cole Beasley said on Twitter that he would not be taking the COVID vaccine.
