The 2021 NFL Draft is officially one week away, and just 32 prospects will have the honor of hearing NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announce their names on Thursday night. For those who will be in attendance, they’ll get the once in a lifetime opportunity to hug the commissioner.
According to reports, Roger Goodell is fully vaccinated.

The #NFL tells us that @nflcommish is indeed vaccinated and #NFLDraft prospects are free to celebrate as they like next Thursday in #Cleveland when they walk across the stage and are greeted by Roger Goodell. Hand shakes, elbow bumps, hugs, maybe even a Danny Shelton pick-up!

I’m sure vaccinated players aren’t looking forward to dealing with another prick.
