The Outkick founder argued natural immunity from being infected by COVID-19 is a valid reason to refrain from getting the vaccine.
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Go to Organdonor DOT, Gov
PETE, Baltimore, Ravens,
PETE, Baltimore, Ravens,
quarterback, Lamar Johnson is
firing back over vaccination
status.
It creates a media frenzy, the
pro athlete and superstar
telling reporters. I want to keep
that between me and my doctors
in my family.
That is all
here to react. Clay Travis. Is
that too much to ask? He is
saying this is a private health
issue. Why cant? It just be
between me and my family, and me
in my doctors,
is a totally fair and valid
response from Lamar Jackson.
I would actually build on if I
was him- and I appreciate you
having me on
this- is a big flaw that the NFL
has and also that our nation
has
Lamar Jackson has had covid.
If you look at his studies of
people who have natural immunity,
that is people who have
recovered from Covid, it is up to
twenty seven times as protective as
vaccinated immunity, and it
doesnt seem to fade as quickly
as vaccinated immunity does
really what Lamar Jackson should
do is make the argument. The
same argument ive been making. I had covid I recovered and I
I had covid. I recovered and I
havent got the vaccine yet
because I looked at the data and
because doctors, I trust, told me
I did not need to because our
natural immunity,
the same way Joe Biden is
protecting. This doesnt exist in
the NFL is pretending this
doesnt exist. I would like to
see Lamar Jackson argue on
behalf of the people like
millions of other Americans that
may have chosen not to get the
vaccine because of our doctors
saying you have natural immunity,
theres, no point of you getting.
The vaccine
is ultimately the NFL going
to make and test up on this. How
are they handling cases like
this?
There are several prominent
quarterbacks and CAM Newton is
not on the roster. He didnt get
the vaccine, video natural
immunity and he recovered, and we
know Kurt cousins theres many
other players, a prominent nature.
There refuse to get the vaccine
and there held with different
protocols and the people who do
good the vaccine, and we will
have to see exactly what ends up
happening.
Ninety three percent of NFL players overall have
gone the vaccine by many
prominent players. Practically
several quarterbacks have not
and they are being held to more
stringent standards than
otherwise would apply if they
got the vaccine. Even though many
of these guys have natural
immunity and should be a serious
and significant conversation,
it should be up to the NFL at
large.
No doubt
we get to one week at the NFL,
yet particular commentary on one
college game last night.
You know what there is a big
Texas Longhorn Fan on the step
right now, and I saw this week
how good the Longhorns against
Louisiana they went on the road
in Arkansas. I was watching all
we can. What happened to your
boys?
Will it was a rough night. Let
me tell you something: I watched
you on the Big news. You pick
Texas, I thought you guys would win.
I thought you guys would win.
Will they looked soft?
That was an amazing
atmosphere, but I bought in- and I
watched you guys against the
Louisiana, and I thought the
offense was good, especially the
second half and boy was IRAN.
Thats when they beat down,
will im going to give this
interview back to pi standby by
the time Texas wins SEC. I have three
true: they will be atop team, they
will be running SEC.
I have a three five year window, but
im standing via,
I dont see that happening
for anybody.
Pete. We have twenty seconds left
with the Big Fox game we should
watch today.
I like Seattle on the road
against the colts, and I like
Aaron Rodgers, taking place in
Jacksonville. It will be a lot of fun for both
it will be a lot of fun for both
of those games. I encourage
people to turn on their phones.
