1-year contracts?

[Jhowdy54]

If the 2020 season is not played how do all the players playing on one year contracts work? Are they free agents again in 2021 or will they be back to the same team automatically with same contract? Also wondering if we lose a year on Joe Burrows rookie contract. I'm starting to think thats the reason no rookie contracts have been signed at this point.

I think at this point with other sports opening up, the discussion has move to NOT PLAYING, but how to format procedures and best practices for practice, preseason, game day

It will definitely take some careful planning.  I was listening to someone on Sports Radio talking about how many more people it takes to put on a televised football game, even without fans in the stadium, than it does for basketball or baseball.

Interesting question, and I have no idea ? I'm sure they have all kinds of clauses and rules in their contract covering about every known issue. But this is a unique happening to say the least. I'd say they're gonna have to wait and see how it plays out and go from there.

Or this thing is way over blown. Fast food restaurants have been operating with 10 to 15 people on per shift with limited cases of the virus. Why?

Safety first by adding shields, temp, checks, answer series of questions and validate no exposure to virus each shift, gloves, masks, wash hands and change gloves hourly. Distance as much as possible.

I say have these sports teams go into the businesses essential and stayed open, they will show them how to open with fans.

That will require a massive negotiation between the NFL and NFLPA
