7:32Now PlayingThe NFL will be kicking off their 102nd regular season on Sept. 9.
With the rise in COVID-19 cases all over the country, the league is hopeful that the 2021 season will be played with fans in the stands and without interruption.
The NFL has implemented a rule that if a team has a COVID-19 outbreak during the week, they will be forced to forfeit their game and be given a loss. At least 90% of NFL players have had at least one shot of the COVID-19 vaccine. Nine teams have more than 95% of their players vaccinated, while a total of 27 teams are above the 85% vaccination rate.
Bill Rhoden, writer for The Undefeated, joins Charles Blow on “Prime” to talk about the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols.
All this and more on “Prime.”
