National Football League (NFL) Commissioner Roger Goodell has promised that all stadiums in the league will be available as COVID-19 vaccination sites for the public. Goodell mentioned in a recent letter to President Biden that the NFL invited 7,500 vaccinated health-care workers to Sunday’s Super Bowl as guests of the league. “The NFL and our 32 member clubs are committed to doing our part to ensure that vaccines are as widely accessible in our communities as possible,” Goodell wrote. “To that end, each NFL team will make its stadium available for mass vaccinations of the general public in coordination with local, state, and federal health officials. This is currently being done at seven NFL stadiums today.” Leaders of the league and the NFL Players Association previously expressed their support for vaccination efforts across the country.
