Report: Raiders reach 100 percent vaccination rate

The Las Vegas Raiders have reportedly reached 100% vaccination, according to Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Denzel Perryman was among the players who initially did not want to get vaccinated. However, he told reporters last week that he doesn't enjoy feeling like an outcast in the team's facility because he is unvaccinated and was considering getting the shot.

With the team now fully vaccinated, it would appear Perryman made the decision to get the shot.

The Raiders already required fans who attend games this season to be fully vaccinated so they could go to games without masks. The team is also setting up vaccination sites at games so fans who aren't vaccinated can get their first shots at the stadium. 

Las Vegas becomes the third team in the NFL to reach 100% vaccination, joining the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Raiders begin their 2021 season against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night.
