J-ALL-DAY Posted January 5, 2022 Author Share Posted January 5, 2022 Quote The NFL and NFL Players Association agreed to modify their joint COVID-19 protocols on Tuesday, cutting the standard isolation period after a positive test for asymptomatic individuals from 10 days to five days regardless of vaccination status, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported. An individual to clear protocol must meet other qualifications beyond the five days since their initial positive test, per a memo to all 32 teams obtained by Pelissero. An individual must clear at least 24 hours since their last fever without the aide of fever-reducing medication; other symptoms must be "resolved or improved"; individual must be cleared by team doctor in consultation with ICS and NFL; and any local regulations or requirements have been satisfied. https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-nflpa-agree-to-modified-covid-19-protocols-cutting-standard-isolation-period What am I missing here?

I think they modified the guidelines because Micah Parsons tested positive today and he is ruled out of the game on Sunday and same thing with Mixon...Though he probably wasn't going to be playing anyways.

I'm not sure if this takes away the option to test out...even your article still indicates that previously they had agreed to that without stating that it's no longer the case. The most updated changes shoudl have made it easier as it's based on the CDC guidelines which actually loosened up. So that would be weird if they removed that testing out option. @Broncofan do you know what's up with the covid testing? Can people still test back in or no?

Um, not sure but unless it is a false positive, highly doubtful anyone would be able to test negative after a day or two. This takes at least a week. But Micah Parsons and Joe Mixon both got ruled out immediately. Unless it is known both are unvaccinated, that doesn't make much sense.

Unvaxxed players are gone for 5 days, and if today was the test sample draw date, then it starts tomorrow. On average, it's been 7+ days to test negative, when it was 2 negative tests, IIRC only 20 percent of players were getting cleared before the 10 day mark. Theoretically possible, practically it's not at all likely. With the Sat game, Parsons is out, unless he's vaxxed and test back in - but keep in mind I think 2 players have tested negative in 4 days or less (and one of them, KC's Ward, was symptomatic 4 days prior, so I think it was a false negative test that day, and he was more likely 7+ days from onset). TJ Watt testing out 4 days post-onset (he was asymptomatic) just shows how much of a freak he is - even his immune system is elite.

Forge Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Fun note...the Bucs have not officially cut AB at this point and he was listed only as a non participant in practice today for personal reasons lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Makes me feel good. Likely asymptomatic... At least hopefully that's what that means Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t even need to test back in. Don’t know why Shanny said that. The ppl placed today (Lenoir) have to test out (if vaxxed) otherwise they’ll be out until Monday.

There have been far worse teams that have made the postseason. Who is the say what team deserves to go or not when a lot of factors are luck influenced as much as effort influenced?

This is only Wednesday, we could end up having a few more costly positive tests before Sunday.

Moseley looked like he was moving fine. Arrow up for him playing this week I would guess. Kind of wild, but Banks is really going to go the entire season without playing any significant snaps.
