the headline is incorrect after reading the article. the players who qualify for the $350k payment will not need to pay it back under any circumstance

it’s still some grimey business but that headline is misleading

the way I understand it, the $350k tier is players that are deemed higher risk, the $150k is for players opting at with lower risks

I have no idea how they can possibly make that determination, if a player doesn’t feel comfortable contracting the virus that would seem to be enough reasoning to opt out for the season

I’d be curious to see the breakdown of which players fell into which tier

"Players who opt out"

Has this always been the case or are they doing this specifically for the COVID-19 situation?

BTW, I guess this implies that yes, the NFL season will happen. Kinda feel bittersweet about it now that they're going about it this way. :francis:
