DE Montez Sweat on the team bringing in vaccine experts to speak to players: “I’m not a fan of it at all. ... I won’t get vaccinated until I get more facts.”

On why he’s hesitant: “I haven’t caught covid yet, so I don’t see me treating covid until I actually get covid.
Full exchange with DE Montez Sweat about the vaccine. Image
HC Ron Rivera said ~50% of WFT players are vaccinated. He said "a few" got a shot Tue, and he'd like to reach herd immunity for training camp. Experts say herd immunity threshold is ~80% (wapo.st/3pK55hy), and MLB relaxes some protocols at 85. NFL has not set a figure.

Washington signing William Jackson III represents a small but stark contrast to how Ron Rivera's past teams were built. Rivera didn't control personnel in Carolina -- Hurney, Gettleman, Hurney again -- but the team never spent big on CBs. (1/6)
Over the Cap positional spending data goes back to 2013, Rivera's third year with the Panthers. Carolina's annual cap allocation to CBs during his tenure vs. leaguewide allocation, ranked: 32nd, 32nd, 29th, 32nd, 27th, 24th, 29th. (2/6)
Carolina wasn't bad at developing CBs either. Team didn't retain good, young ones during that time -- Captain Munnerlyn ('13) and Josh Norman ('16) -- and another, James Bradberry ('20), departed after Rivera was fired but Hurney remained the GM. (3/6)
