DT Fotu on Being Vaccinated: 'I've Done My Part'

“Just want to speak for myself,” Fotu said, while revealing, “I've done my part in order to get fully vaccinated. I'm certain my other teammates with their situations, they do what is best for them to do.”

He acknowledged the difficulty of not being with the team, saying, “Being out for those five days, missing the game was definitely rough on me. To see the guys out there, just knowing that the work that I put in during the offseason to that point. But I tried everything in my power at home quarantined, to work out, stay on top of my stuff, to make sure I'm ready to come back this week.”

Quarterback Kyler Murray was asked if there is a level of frustration when teammates are sidelined because they have elected not to be vaccinated.

He said, “You can't really control what guys do off the field. I think if they're bought in, they will try their best to stay out of the way or not be close contact to people, but like I said, you can't really control it. I don't know the stat, but I think we're almost there as far as everybody being vaccinated.”

Head coach Kliff Kingsbury claimed he didn’t know what the team percentage is now, but he did say, “I know we're getting to a good place.”

All players, whether with the Cardinals or any team would be served well by living out Fotu’s words, “I’ve done my part.”
