Yup. That's what most will be. Players that knew they had little chance of making the cut anyway. Free money. The Saints now only have eight players they need to cut in three weeks. Chances are they reach that through attrition.

Shouldn't there be some word out of camp as to who is and who isn't in shape?

This week is testing only. They have to test negative twice with three day between tests. Loomis said yesterday they have had no positive test results at all so far. Kind of surprising, but heard the same about several other teams this morning. They won't be admitted into the facility until next week for any other purposes.

Chatted with a few Saints beat reporters, while it will be more difficult with the NFL and its roster sizes, the NFL is legit hard-core focused on establishing a "bubble" so as to minimize spread and contact tracing...

Now what the NFL says and what actually happens, well, that's open to debate, but as AG posted re: the CBA CCPVirus Addendum, that's the mission statement status quo for the NFL at this time...

Thanks and Yeah, usually Hagan and I would coordinate via DMs so we kept the thread pumped with talking points that'd get participation and try to defuse folks from allowing great passion become too venomous...

This year is gonna be pretty dynamic and in flow as we see how this #CCPVirus can change the landscape quickly...

Have already reached out to a few of the generous Saints reporters for their thoughts and like us they are bewildered by what is happening and just as unsure how events will unfold, but they all agree - we need football...

@Nick_Underhill has written a piece tonight about Sean Payton setting the tone early for the season in his presser today...

I managed to get myself blocked by @SeanPayton early this year with some light-hearted jabs, but truthful, honest, and accurate reminders to him of what he's said in the past and inconsistencies in what he's done...

So I appreciated Nick's article addressing the focused Sean Payton...

U better believe it, no hiccups on protocol or escaping the bubble to get the team in harms way . The boys of summer are showing there true conceded egos spreading the Covid thru out some clubs .

FIFY

And this ...

Sources: MLB requiring teams to add coronavirus protocol compliance officers

Ya' think? The NFL required this months ago. The NFL appears to be lightyears ahead of MLB in operating under these conditions.
