While I love you and your wife's idea and hustle. I believe for the current pandemic homemade masks like this won't help much if at all. You see when people sneeze they project all that sneeze at such a fast rate that it will still go through the mask. I believe only N95 masks will stop the sneeze from going out and any foreign sneezes from coming in. 

Something's better than nothing, but these fabric masks are more about not giving the virus to other people. They have about a 50% effectiveness assuming their made of cotton.

sneezing isn't a symptom, but the virus can be spread by when we we sneeze, cough, laugh, talk or breathe. Look it up there are many websites that confirm this. I got my info from the CDC website. 

Are these masked sanctioned by NFL. Paying 12 times the rate for a surgical mask that is a lot if they are knock-offs.  

No need to be sanctioned by the NFL. They're homemade masks!

I think the NFL lawyers would beg to differ if you are selling them.

I'm telling you what I already know. You can make whatever you want to out of NFL-licensed material, patches, stickers or whatever else and sell it legally!

@mc52beast just a tip to pass along, my mom made our family some of these and she sewed HEPA filters into the lining from cut up vacuum cleaner bags, idk if your wife has thought of that but it filters out a lot more than just cloth does

Seems like every day the guidance change s, read yesterday that a lot of vacuum bags have fiberglass fibers that could get into your lungs.  Maa told me to quit sending her mask making links.

    • I think they are holding back to see what they have in the young guys, but I think it's a near certainty at some point they will bring someone else in. Right now (assuming we keep 5 CBs which is normal), the top 5 IMO are: 1) Jaycee Horn 2) Mike Jackson 3) Chau Smith-Wade 4) Shemar Bartholomew  5) Akayleb Evans   Obviously Jaycee is the alpha in that room and paid as such. Need him to stay healthy and continue to play at a Pro-Bowl level. Mike Jack did pretty well all things considered last year, and they gave him lower-level starter money. Fair deal for both sides.  Smith-Wade showed some promise as a slot CB. I think low-key he's a lock for the team. Different size and skill set than the other CBs. Shemar Bartholomew was the most sought after waiver claim last preseason. Was 5th CB most and inactive most of last year. Had a few defensive and ST snaps. Nothing of note good or bad but too small a sample size to make any judgment. Akayleb Evans was a 2022 4th Rounder for the Vikings. Has started 19 games (including Week 18 for the Panthers) in his career and played in 43. Was pretty good in 2023 before getting injured and falling down the depth chart last year. There's some other guys on the outside looking in, but until they show more in training camp I dont see anyway they make the 53. And only Jaycee, Mike Jack, and Smith-Wade are locks to make this roster IMO.  
    • Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.
    • They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it.
