The NFL has "no intention" of requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for players, coaches or team staff members.

Dr. Allen Sills said he hopes "everyone" will get vaccinated and added that "you'll see vaccinated individuals be able to have certain privileges, and certain precautions that are lifted that won't apply to unvaccinated individuals."

But it does not appear that vaccination will be a prerequisite for participation in the 2021 season.

"What we are focusing on is education," Sills said. "We want everyone to have the facts."
