The Facts: The NFL Players Association has managed to prevent the league from mandating COVID vaccinations. The NFLPA also has secured the ability of unvaccinated players to get paid if they miss games due to a COVID infection. That's apparently not enough. Mixon has complained about the restrictions that will apply to unvaccinated players during the 2021 season. "The NFLPA is not for the players they act like they represent us and they clearly show us different time & time again," Mixon tweeted on Wednesday.

Diehards Line:Mixon also said "this is who y'all players want to be led by," along with, "I thought Football was a team sport and it's clearly being individualized by beliefs. ..." As PFT suggests, Mixon seems to be making the personal decision to not get vaccinated, and that's fine. But the union managed to get significant relaxations in the 2020 rules and regulations for the players who get vaccinated. The players who have gotten vaccinated and will experience a normal 2021 season should be happy. It's a situation worth watching.
