The NFL prints money, why shouldn't they pay the Steelers for a forefit another team caused and their own inflexible 'plan' for powering through the season caused? It's a dumb codicil anyway, in an season where forefits were going to be in the realm of possibility not to add in that if one team causes a forefit by not following protocols, screw them and make things right with the team who didn't cause it.
If the league wanted to set harsh punishments (from the start), they should have the team forfeiting (due to outbreaks) pay the opposing teams salaries for said game whilst the infected team receives no pay.
See how serious teams take the virus when the owner has to cough up 18ish million dollars and their own players not getting paid themselves.
