Bruce Arians isn't happy Antonio Brown and Mike Edwards used fake COVID-19 vaccination cards to trick the Tampa Bay Buccaneers into thinking they were vaccinated.

In September, Arians announced the Buccaneers were one of the few NFL teams to reach 100-percent vaccination status. He stood by that claim after a report suggested Brown purchased a counterfeit vaccination card, saying the Bucs did their "due diligence" with the situation.

Arians seemed to accept the Bucs were duped.

He added he hopes the NFL investigates the rest of the league to see if any other players tried to circumvent the rules.

Bruce Arian says he’s pissed off

It makes for a good sound bite in the wake of two players lying to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers about their COVID-19 vaccination status.

Why Antonio Brown and Mike Edwards have the upper hand in the Bucs' vaccination status mess

That has been the simplest of truths in the NFL when it comes to COVID or vaccination or even honesty in general. If someone is important enough in the overall construct of winning games, that person can survive nearly anything, whether it’s missing key games, breaking NFL and union protocols, misleading the general public, spreading misinformation or even lying to the point of making a head coach look foolish.

Conversely, you don’t really need to look beyond former cornerback Kemah Siverand — who was cut by the Seattle Seahawks during the 2020 preseason for trying to sneak a woman into the team hotel in a violation of COVID protocols — to see what happens when you're not important enough to survive breaking the rules.
