I just don't see this season going more than one game. All it will take is one team to get it bad. Then the season is in shambles. can be a $350,000 stipend if your high risk. a “high-risk” opt-out, a designation that allows him to collect a $350,000 stipend and an accrued season. Players not granted the designation receive a $150,000 advance on their 2021 contracts and don’t accrue a season. Interesting what the accrue - don't accrue plays into each players stituation

I’m trying to stay optimistic that the NBA and it’s bubble will show that it can be done. I’m not optimistic that the NFL has the slightest chance of completing its season unless they go to a bubble themselves....which is extremely unlikely at this point. 1
Buffalo_Stampede Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 Man, all of a sudden the Bills could go get Clowney after cutting Murphy. $15 million in cap just like that 1 2

Every indication from the league is they will be going forward with the season no matter what. Feel silly? For what? Thinking that the season is going to be cancelled due to a world wide pandemic? Not really something I’d ever “feel silly” about, but w/e floats your boat 5

If you don’t need it, that is. The issue i see, is what a year of not playing does to someone (especially a trench player)... feels like some of these guys won’t be back in the league. Star wouldn’t surprise me. Yeah. my other posts have been about this difficult decision for less fortunate or less lucratively successful players. Not that this isn't a hard decision, but man if you have it in the bank your body is not going to up and complain to you about not playing and neither is your family.

ChevyVanMiller Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 I hope that this doesn't become an avalanche across the league that has rosters looking like replacement squads. Here is the current *Pats list: Patriots LB Dont’a Hightower Patriots RB Brandon Bolden Patriots RT Marcus Cannon Patriots FB Danny Vitale Patriots S Patrick Chung Patriots OL Najee They are going to be severely hampered (though it couldn't happen to a more deserving squad ) 7
YoloinOhio Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 Is he high risk - I recall he had a heart condition at draft time 1
H2o Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 TSW is going to have to find a new whipping boy. Murphy, you are front and center now.

It’s one comment in one thread on one bills message board. Stop thinking it’s more than it is. yes. I hope there’s a season. I’m praying that they can somehow make this happen. Seeing that the Marlins now have 18 positive tests (among other things), in a non contact sport makes me think that this is very unlikely to work. sorry I’m not as positive as you and others. Use the ignore function if I’m draining your soul 1 1
