Probably not. But he also won’t be lined up face to face 6 inches apart from other people for 3 hours every Saturday for the next 12 to 15 Saturday’s.

Irrelevant how you feel about it. He made a choice for himself based on his own health concerns. Deal with it.

Hey Shelvin's dad: It's a coronavirus which is another strain of the flu. It's a contrived effort to influence the election and an exercise in mind control. I bash you for saying it's about Covid-19.

I agree.

He's probably the single most at-risk player on the team. I can't blame him.
Posted on 8/31/20 at 7:51 pm to tigerskin
Then he should sit out next year too in the nfl bc covid will still be around.

Yeah, I was thinking that might be a factor. I know COVID mostly only really affects the elderly and those with numerous preexisting conditions, but when you weigh as much as that guy and the news is how the news is, I can understand the thought process.

I don't believe this for one second, to be honest.
These guys are safer in the program.

Lol Covid is not killing overweight kids in his age range
Posted on 8/31/20 at 8:44 pm to Tigahs24Seven
The dude Is a 370 pound black male, obviously overweight, could be vitamin D deficient, diabetic, have high blood pressure for all you know....Those statistics look a lot different if any of those are true... I just hope that’s the real reason him and Chase left...The timing leaves it all up for discussion...
Posted on 8/31/20 at 9:14 pm to BiggaGeauxrilla
So now he will be a 7th rd draft pick at best and most probably be out of football within a year or so and balloon up to 450lbs and become diabetic. Tell me
How staying with the team and attempting to get in shape isn’t safer than what the reality will be.

It’s because he is fat! He will never make it being off for this long. That little scary thing called Covid is going to cost him a lot!

should have stopped right there. Every day that goes by it becomes clearer and clearer this is a political hoax.

It’s concerning to me that he is so defensive about it.

One that the entire rest of the world is participating in? Including Japan (who absolutely gives no fricks about Donald “the Orange Fat arse” Trump) who postponed the Olympics because of it? And you want to try and stand up against the group that has that kind of power and influence? Lol. Good luck.
Get real.

Its not every day that organizations get caught inflating deaths by a cause by 600+ %.

What breakout? A bunch of guys tested positive. So what? How many even got the sniffles or a bad cough? These are athletes in the prime of life. They have the best medical care money can buy. COVID-19 is simply not a danger to them.
Do you really not get it? Yes, if the vast majority of the guys on the team got Covid, they would be totally fine. But if the 370+ lb. guy caught it from one of the “bunch of guys that tested positive,” he might be in trouble... How is this difficult to follow? We’re not talking about a regular “overweight” person here. Dude is morbidly obese.
