NFL proposal would allow players to opt out of 2020 season by a specific date

Posted on July 17, 2020July 17, 2020 by Santiago Leon

The two sides have been discussing the possibility of players being able to opt-out of the 2020 season for the past few weeks, but this is the first time that hard date has been put on the table to this point. This Aug. 1 deadline does give teams over a month to figure out a replacement for a given player who has opted out prior to the regular season kicking off, beginning with the Texans and Chiefs on Thursday, Sept. 10.
