NFL Warns Teams Can’t Cut Players Because Of Vaccination Status

Buffalo Bills’ GM Brandon Beane kicked up a bit of controversy when he recently admitted he may consider cutting a player who wasn’t vaccinated in order to reach vaccination threshold. That would allow the team to have greater freedom, including being able to conduct in-person meetings instead of doing so virtually.

Peter King explained the comments in his Football Morning In America column over on Pro Football Talk.

“Buffalo GM Brandon Beane said what the NFL didn’t want him to say the other day: He would cut an unvaccinated player if it meant keeping a vaccinated player would allow the Bills to be able to hold team and position meetings without limitation.
