Raiders will receive fines for Covid & may lose draft picks

Post #1 » by **HMFFL** » Sun Oct 25, 2020 5:10 pm

Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reports the Raiders "will be fined very heavily" and could have draft picks taken away because of violations of the COVID-10 rules.

Glazer added that the severity of the punishment is because Las Vegas has already been cited for breaking the rules previously. The NFL has decided to impose heavy penalties on teams that continue to skirt the rules and the Raiders are an easy team to make an example of. It's not yet known if the Raiders will lose a draft pick or what round that pick may be taken from. However, the loss of more than money should deter other teams from violating the rules.

Bye bye draft pick.

Yahoo's Charles Robinson reports the Raiders have been fined $500,000 and stripped of a 2021 sixth-round draft pick for "protocol violations related to OT Trent Brown’s positive test in late October."

Coach Jon Gruden has also been fined $150,000. The stiff penalties are because the Raiders were deemed to be "repeat offenders." Gruden certainly hasn't displayed the best mask form on the sideline, in addition to some off-the-field protocol issues with his players. With COVID running more and more rampant inside the NFL, the league is going to grow ever more heavy-handed in an effort to keep the season on track. It is going to be extraordinarily difficult as the United States deals with record coronavirus cases heading into colder weather.
