[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 878915"] The NFLPA is now recommending cancellation of preseason altogether with a 48 day schedule of team activities before the start of the season. The schedule can be found here: [URL]https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nflpa-board-recommends-cancellation-of-preseason-discussing-player-opt-out-scenario-with-nfl-per/[/URL] With the season starting on 9/10, that would put guys showing up right around 7/24. Players traveling to facilities in New York or Chicago, or anywhere else in the meantime where 14 day quarantines apply to current hot spots, would have to get going right around 7/10 and then find a place to hang out for two weeks. That's only 6 days away. Of course, New York is "only" leveling a $10,000 fine so if, for example, the Bills call their guys in to Orchard Park, NY after 7/10, they could just pay the fines and issue a public FU in the process. Time is getting short for even this plan, the NFL office is still sitting on a two preseason game proposal, and the national case curve is bending up parabolically. Even if they go forward with the NFLPA plan, what happens when all 90 players + coaches + staff show up and are tested on or about 7/24? Right now Johns Hopkins is reporting 7.5% of tests are coming in positive on a 7-day moving average, climbing at a steady rate from 4.4% in mid-June. Some hot spots are approaching 20%. So if everybody shows up on the appointed 7/24 date, what are the odds of several positive tests resulting in whatever comes next...shut down, sanitizing, quarantines, what have you? Quite high, I'd say. Something tells me the NFL and NFLPA are working from behind the curve. [/QUOTE]
