prevnext🤣🤣🤣🤣 yooo so we could hit each for 60 minutes but we can’t switch jerseys, y’all look stupid

if the NFL prohibits its players from the customary post game handshakes and jersey swaps for fear of spreading covid19, then it only makes complete sense to let them play the game where no one will be within 6 feet of each other during the course of the game

This is a perfect example of NFL thinking in a nutshell. Players can go engage in a full contact game and do it safely. However, it is deemed unsafe for them to exchange jerseys after said game. 😂🤣😂 https://t.co/fWefsUSVDc

prevnextIf the nfl doesn’t think it’s safe for players to swap jerseys at the end of the game why do they think it’s safe for them to play a full contact 60 minute game. 🤨

The NFL banning jersey swaps is so dumb. Not like they are all out there on the field for 3 hours before the swap would happen or anything

In other news, the NHL is considering requiring all players to fill their gloves with hand sanitizer...

prevnextThe NFL is hilarious man. Their leadership is so out of touch with EVERYTHING. They consistently get things wrong time and time and time again. It’s okay to go block and tackle each other for 60 minutes, but a jersey swap...a jersey swap is the real threat of spreading Covid 😂😂

How can NFL players play an entire game trying to kill each other, but can’t swap jerseys at the end 🤯😭 shit makes zero sense
— Rand Cuervo (@Sforza_Sport) July 9, 2020
The @NFL is going to allow guys to literally smash their bodies into each other for 3+ hours every Sunday, but they won’t let them swap jerseys afterwards, because… safety.
It’s probably not a good idea to play football during a pandemic, guys 🤷🏻♂️

prevnextThe NFL: You can’t swap jerseys but you can swap sweat for 48mins

Dozens of players each week tend to swap jerseys and autograph them following the game as a sign of respect for one another...... NO MORE. This post-game tradition is #Banned by the #NFL

So the NFL is going to play games but players can’t swap jerseys...make it make sense

prevnextAnd AGAIN! The @NFL show how dumb of an organization they are. Lol
Tackle for 60 mins, but don’t jersey swap after 🥴🤣

Tackling is cool but God forbid you swap jerseys.
The NFL is making no sense https://t.co/ppdz1wv8Dx
