More Colts added to COVID Reserve List - Wentz, Kelly, and Pascal

Also bizarre is how NFL players will take some pretty strong, dangerous, toxic and addictive pain killers so readily and often; Drugs that show up in you liver and kidneys almost immediately after ingesting or injection. Drugs legal and otherwise that have been proven to cause long-term damage and cause addictions that have ruined careers and even lives, yet have such an issue with an FDA approved vaccination...

Good thing there’s an extra week after the last preseason game this year

Be interesting to see if this 5 day ban has any affect on Colt vaccination rate. This is going to be a tough team to root for if they lose games because of pure stupidity. The NFL has made it crystal clear that they are going to put you at competitive disadvantage for not getting vaccinated. Plus this Wentz idiot is now the face of the franchise. Jeez how shitty is that?

Once again I’ll quote the great Tony Dungy here “We’re gonna be fine”

I was wondering if it might motivate these guys to get vaccinated once they feel the consequences and see the effect it will have in the team. COVID is rampant throughout the country. It seems impossible that players won’t come in contact with COVID positive individuals. It was theoretical, it isn’t anymore

Keefer indicated that a few vaccine hesitant players recently decided to get the shot(s). Not sure if it was spurred when Fisher / Nelson went on the COVID reserve list or when Wentz / Kelly / Pascal went on the list. Those moves showed that it was rather easy to miss 5 days of work just by being a close contact with someone who was infected.

Mentioned this on the air with Kevin Bowen and Gregg Doyel this morning: I'd expect the Colts vaccination rate to climb in the coming days/weeks. Have heard a handful of players have decided to get the shot. Before you ask, I don't have names.

The vaccination rate will likely be going down tomorrow. The Colts were at about 75% vaccinated at the 90 player roster limit. Once the team is down to the 53 man roster + 16 player practice squad, the vaccination rate will probably be around 70%, maybe even slightly below it.
