There is no preseason?
After players collectively tweeted #WeWantToPlay in response to the NFL’s safety plans, or lack thereof, around preparing for the 2020 season, the NFL has offered the players union zero preseason games.
This is a great step for both the NFL and the NFLPA.

Raheem Mostert and his agent, Brett Tessler, announced on July 8 that they had requested an exchange from the San Francisco 49ers.

He is not even the highest paid broker on the list. That would be Tevin Coleman, even though Mostert is expected to carry the bulk of the workload this season. Mostert is slated to earn a base salary of just $ 2.575 million in 2020 and won’t become a free agent until 2022. RELATED:

Mostert is signed during the 2021 season, but will earn a base salary of just $ 2.575 million this year. Mostert and his agent want a new deal or want the broker to return to a team that will offer him one. What exactly is Mostert asking the 49ers for? Is that completely irrational for the team’s leading running back and the player who led all running backs in yards per carry last season? It doesn’t sound like this RELATED:
