It's In The Check

The NFL wants its players to take the Covid vaccine to avoid a disruption of the season, but there is only so much they can do.

No games were canceled last season, but a number were postponed. The Pats had that happen twice.

The league announced that any canceled games not made up will be a forfeit on the behalf of the infected team. To emphasize their point, players on both teams will miss a game check for that week. 

It's hard to say if things will ever get to this point. There are many unknowns going into the season.
