Washington Football Team head coach Ron Rivera is immunocompromised after a battle with cancer in 2020Cancer survivor Ron Rivera, head coach of the Washington Football Team, is confounded by the anti-vaccination sentiment evident in his team's league-low vaccination numbers. Rivera, who is immunocompromised after a battle with cancer in 2020, didn't mask his frustration with players on the Washington Football Team for dragging their feet in seeking Covid-19 immunisations. As of July 26, the NFL said the Washington Football Team was only 60 per cent vaccinated. The NFL informed teams earlier in July they could potentially forfeit a game due to a coronavirus outbreak among non-vaccinated players, and players on both teams wouldn't get paid that week. "For purposes of playoff seeding, the forfeiting team will be credited with a loss and the other team will be credited with a win."
