He was not vaccinated at the end of August when he was sent home as a close contact, because vaccinated close contacts don't have to quarantine.

Again: When did Star catch Covid this summer? Please stop saying this until you show the evidence because I think it is incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnNord Posted November 14, 2021 Author Share Posted November 14, 2021 1 minute ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: We do not know his vaccination status at present, nor whether he was sent home as a close contact or due to symptoms. He was apparently unvaccinated or not fully vaccinated in late August, when he missed 5 days as a close contact of an infected trainer. If he is unvaccinated, he could have been a close contact and could be back in 5 days if he tests negative. If he is vaccinated, he could also be back in 5 days if he's not symptomatic and tests negative. If he's unvaccinated and has Covid, I hope he has a mild case and recovers quickly. I forgot that he could be a close contact… Hopefully that’s the case here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the players aren't getting careless, would really mess up the season for some teams. I think we're going to see some NFL protocol changes, but the question is before or after some team has a big mess, and will we be that team?

That’s was my point If Star had contracted Covid on August 24, then this situation would quite possibly not exist because he would have been exempted from daly testing for 90 days.

Livinginthepast Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 This is yet another scary scenario for this team. It absolutely amazes me that Vaccinations are not mandatory at the very least for all the players and coaches in the NFL. If we make the playoffs and players like Diggs or Allen get Covid how screwed are we?. Vaccinated people still can get this virus even when being careful and having unvaccinated players on the team increases the chances hugely. Just ridiculous!

bigduke6 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 doubt NFL does anything about this for the rest of this season. its too late to fight the NFLPA. clearly there are alot of players who have "decided" to not get vaxxed. Star being out, Rothlisberger being out, Rodgers being out last week, Mitch, tons of other no names from other teams we dont really hear about, this isnt really all that surprising. the thing that gets me is, these guys have access to the best medical knowledge in the world in most cases, and i guess it doesnt mean much. sucks about Star, the odds were good this would happen tho. how long b4 another big time star or QB gets hit with it and cost his team games and or playoffs seeding etc? we shall see.

Steptide Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Star being out concerns me more than Edmunds being out. Aj Klein is a solid backup to put in place of Edmunds. Harrison Phillips really hasent had a huge impact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malazan Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 1 hour ago, JohnNord said: Man this sucks. Not so much for this week because I think the jets will try to throw the ball, but also because Star had COVID earlier this season and was not vaccinated. That means he’s out for 10 days, and it means he’ll miss the game against Indy which could be a huge loss What makes you think they're gonna throw? They're offense came alive with Mike White because they are running the ball and throwing short passes.. Star would be huge today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means he’s out for 10 days, and it means he’ll miss the game against Indy which could be a huge loss Wow, this is actually terrible! He has been playing possessed! He was a beast against the jags! He was in the backfield , dominating the line and kept Edmunds clean all day! Big loss for us, now our middle is all second string like our o line experienced! Also no zimmer to cover the loss! Last year we seemed to get our share of lucky breaks, this year bad things keep happening, BAD THINGS MAN! Critical game ,,,,,,even if we win and the Steelers win without Ben, suddenly they are above us in the playoff seeding! That first game and of course our jags loss is already nibbling , if not biting us! I feeel bad for Star, skipped last season because of Covid, only to get it at the half way point this year! After watching clay troia’s great breakdown of our embarrassing line play wher Ford triple teamed a guy leaving clean runners at Josh, another play where all 5 of our lineman were beaten so badly by 4 guys, they all had their backs turned watching Josh getting hit, I am at a show me state of mind regarding our O! Hate saying this,,,,hate it,,,,,but so many little things adding up ( Josh refusing to throw to wide open short/hot routes, refusing to run and take easy yards to just keep holding the ball for a deep route to clear etc.),,I am thinking this team is in trouble! You need luck and this year ours is less than good Let’s see if Daboll can get Josh to listen , and can Dabs finally get back his creativity with motion, jet sweeps, up tempo etc or do we still not adjust if we get off to another slow start !? We didn’t need this w Star,,,,bad things man ! Seems like a true pivot point in our season! I want to enjoy a win as much as I’m enjoying looking at Cynthia’s nice legs in her unseasonable short, shorts outfit ! 😄😉. No room for mistakes Bills ,,,,, just like Cynthia sitting down in front of the camera in those shorts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, we didn't draft him high (over an olineman) just to sit on the bench. Start getting him reps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
