Source: Four NFL teams under 50% vaccine mark

Four NFL teams "remain under 50% vaccinated less than two weeks from the start of training camp," accoring to a source. The source said that the WFT, Colts, Cardinals and Chargers "had the four lowest COVID-19 vaccination rates in the league as of Thursday." The Steelers, Dolphins, Panthers and Broncos have the "highest vaccination rates and are among 10 teams that have achieved at least 85%." About 73% of players "have been vaccinated." The source said that the NFL "doesn’t plan to cancel any games this season." The NFL and NFLPA last month agreed to updated protocols to loosen restrictions for fully vaccinated players, and beginning at the start of training camp, teams "will be required to develop a method to visually identify fully vaccinated Tier 1 and Tier 2 individuals" (AP, 7/16).
