Good point, and I have not taken the time to read the entire "rule book", but I am aware that there are different rules for non-vaccinated players that includes things like dining with the team and going out to restaurants.  I'm a bit surprised more has not been made of this, because if I was a non-vax'd player, I would feel really detached from my team.  

Regardless, as many have stated, there are many businesses that basically force employees to get the vaccine and this sport happens to generate a ton of its revenue from advertisements and ticket sales.  If a potential outbreak risks losing those things from loss of games and attendance, they should be able to do everything in their power to protect their business.  Let's not forget, it isn't just the NFL that makes money off the games.  There are a lot of smaller businesses that do as well.
