They have Fuller to play inside but the more others show they can do the more They can move Fuller around and tap Into his versatility. That means using Moreland inside as well. Was also new to slot duties as a rook. Not easy.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 1, 2020
Chris Harris believes Jimmy Moreland has the versatility to play inside slot and outside. Big thing that stood out from Harris watching his tape was how tough he is. He comes up and tackles in the open field.

Chris Harris says that because Kendall Fuller can play outside, nickel and some safety, they're going to wait to see where he plays the best.

New: Wide receiver Marqise Lee is planning to opt out of the 2020 season, per league source. He is the seventh #Patriots player to make this choice.

After @globejimmcbride reported that Patriots WR Marqise Lee is opting out of the season, I just spoke with Lee.

Lee became a first-time father in February to a daughter, Alia.
"We just feel like it wasn't smart for us to go out and play this year," Lee told me.

— Mary Kay Cabot (@MaryKayCabot) August 1, 2020
Even throughout his trade demand, Browns TE David Njoku remained part of the team’s offensive plans. As for Njoku’s reported decision to rescind his demand now, my understanding is he was viewed as being professional throughout the process & is still regarded as a good young..1/2

2/2 [Cont on Browns TE David Njoku] ....man in the building. There’s a feeling internally that having more time to reflect and getting back with his old teammates and coaches helped his decision to relent.

A couple of players around the league have already come off the reserve/COVID-19 list. Here's how the players can return. Sidenote: it's a good cheat to see if a player tested positive or not if they're off the list quickly https://t.co/y7AaDgLnU7

By our count, 34 NFL players have opted out for 2020, even though the seven-day opt out window still hasn't officially opened.
— ProFootballTalk (@ProFootballTalk) August 1, 2020
Opt-out deadline for NFL players is now expected to be moved up to either Tuesday or Wednesday, per league sources, depending on talks this weekend. NFL is pushing to move up the deadline from one week after the new CBA side-letter is signed, and it now is expected even sooner.

With all the DLs opting out, former first-round pick Robert Nkemdiche has been talking to teams. Would have to be a low-risk deal but Nkemdiche is telling teams he’s focused and healthy. Down to 315 pounds after getting as high as 345. pic.twitter.com/Apx7vPBWq3

This one feels like it definitely could be different than those. https://t.co/WOstKcrbGz
There are tons of logistical issues, starting with the size of the team cohorts, wear and tear on a field vs a court, etc. Maybe if they started planning April 1st they'd have had something by now. It can't be organized in 6 weeks or whatever. https://t.co/Gj80gpqgc1
