    Who the hell is the NFL to tell these players to get vaccinated!?! What’s next? Telling them HGH is off limits?

    Unless someone, anyone not just an NFL player, can articulate a rational, specific and individual reason for not getting the vaccine I don’t give a shit what they say. Refusing to be vaccinated for a nonspecific, unscientific reason reason is the only question on an IQ test. If they answer is no vaccine, then you lack intelligence and anything else you say is suspected of being stupid. Again, I do t care whether it’s Deandre Hopkins or Bill Nye.

    I'm guessing players think juicing is "helping the team" until they get busted. If the NFL gave official amnesty for PED busts (rather than looking the other way like they do now) for vaxxed players, the objections would stop.

    So he’d hurt his team by quitting it instead.

    He deleted the tweet, but the damage was done.

    No one cares, DeAndre. The shield will survive without you.

    I'm betting if they truly liked the guy, they'd have been more likely to look the other way.
