Once Urban Meyer admitted on Tuesday that vaccination status played a factor in roster cuts, the NFL Players Association heard that and has kick-started an investigation.

”Everyone was considered; that was part of the production and also was he vaccinated or not,” Meyer said, via the Florida Times-Union. ”To say that was a decision-maker, it certainly was under consideration.”

Pro Football Talk reported the news of the investigation following Meyer’s comments.

“These comments have led us to open an investigation,” NFLPA spokesman George Atallah told PFT via text message regarding Meyer’s admission that player vaccination status was considered in making roster cuts.

This isn’t the first time the issue has come up in the offseason. Buffalo Bills GM Brandon Beane admitted that he would cut an unvaccinated player if it led to a normal offseason.

This appears to be a case of a story that could linger for several days, as Meyer and the Jaguars get set to open the season against the Texans.
