Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who got vaccinated in July because of the NFL’s unending pressure to get the COVID shots, has been placed on the NFL’s COVID reserve list and will now miss five to 10 days.
Adam Schefter reports that the Titans now have three players and two coaches dealing with COVID.
“The NFL has kind of made it clear what they want to happen. If you don’t fall in line, they’re gonna to make your life miserable with all the protocols,” Tannehill said in July. “I wouldn’t have gotten the vaccine, without the protocols that they’re enforcing on us,” he added. “I think it’s a personal decision for everyone, everyone has to make the best decision for them and their families. That’s kind of our mindset in this building. But they’re trying to force your hand and they ultimately have forced a lot of hands by the protocols.”
Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who is double vaccinated, tested positive for covid and is now out a substantial number of days. The NFL covid policy was predicated on breakthrough cases not existing after vaccination. It’s broken. Huge mess for the season coming.

“It is what it is,” Tannehill continued. “I love this game, I love this team. I want to be able to compete and do the things I think are important to build chemistry and win football games. Ultimately that forced my hand into getting the vaccine.”
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that vaccinated players who test positive can return to team facilities with TWO NEGATIVE tests 24 hours apart. Pelissero adds that everyone in the Titans facility, no matter their vaccination status, has been going through testing over the last few days.
Titans are placing QB Ryan Tannehill on the Reserve/COVID 19 list, per source. He now will miss anywhere from 5-10 days, depending on his status.

Wow, it’s a “vaccine” that really isn’t one but for sh*ts and giggles it is inexplicably called one and mandated while the jabbed,double jabbed and triple jabbed still get the ‘rona and actually spread worse ‘rona in delightful variants. It’s a clown show.
They are supposed to be, as much as is possible, staff as well...............
A death for some us no doubt. But our lives will be sacrificed for the common good don’t you know. There are even some Freepers who support such immorality.
Da Bears are being led by Andy Dalton, so yeah......................
Next question: Are the COVID tests unreliable or does the vaccine not work?
Also, since Tannehill is an Aggie and he plays for Tennessee, are we sure they knew which way the vaccine was supposed to be injected? Maybe they thought the needle end was supposed to point away from the arm.
Yes......................
“Define “works” again?”
Doesn’t need a booster shot
Also after getting a vaccine you really shouldn’t have to worry about getting the illness you were vaccinated against should you?
In fact, the bubble is “unnecessary”... the whole point of the vaccine is to PROTECT AGAINST CONTRACTING the bug
Sometime in the past few months the definition of “vaccine” changed.
The vaccine is not supposed to be 100% effective. Or 90%. Or 80% or whatever “they” say. It’s supposed to keep you from getting as sick when you do get Covid. You know. Like all vaccines do......
So actually this should be a feel good vaccine story. “See! Tannehill got the shot and got Covid. But when he got Covid he didn’t even get sick!”
Or something like that.
Who caught the coof last November when he was with the Cowboys and hasn't had it since!
I got respect for Andy, a good QB who wasted his best years on a team (for example, Dalton was worthily Pro Bowled in 2016 off a 6-9-1 season) that wouldn't pay for defense in a not-really-that-hard AFC North.
At least with the shitshow that is da Bears, he could go either way, although they looked a lot more like the 2017 Bears at Buffalo than the 2018 Bears.
This is total insanity.
Take the "vax" and get tested anyhow, because the "vax" does not work!
On August 23, 2021, FDA approved the biologics license application (BLA) submitted by BioNTech Manufacturing GmbH for COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 in individuals 16 years of age and older.(emphasis added)
That's all it is approved to do. Everything else is ancillary.
Still a no. Still on covet in active list. Still testing negative for covet.
Thanks for the update.
I think he was screwed by the Cowboys............
Nope. Cole hasn’t been vaccinated and he won’t be any time soon. He is at the tip of the spear for Unvaxxed NFL players. He is happy to take the arrows. The NFL Players Union is worthless fighting for their members.
He wasn’t gonna play in the final PS game anyway.
Jesper Horsted trying to make the Bears roster..3 TDS.
IIRC correctly, he’s a kneeler....so I don’t care about him nor his “beloved” game....a game so beloved that he was willing to throw his pride, his soul, his country under the bus....
Players who aren’t vaccinated are more likely to miss time and run the risk of taking other players out with them. Urban Meyer
I worked with 5 others on my shift tonight. 3 were wearing hijab.
