Right now vaccinated players are tested every 14 days vs every day for unvaccinated, but they may start testing more often

NFLPA proposing vaccinated players get tested more often than current protocols require

I never understood the reduced testing. The risk that a person gets Covid from transmission (regardless of vaccination status) is high enough that for a high contact sport like football, daily testing just makes sense.

Yeah I don't see how there can be a middle ground. You either test aggressively or not at all.
