Dont'a Hightower and 4 other Patriots opt out of 2020 season
https://www.tmz.com/2020/07/27/nfl-p...ytZNH04RUDIiaM
Dont'a Hightower -- a 3-time Super Bowl champion and one of the leaders of the Patriots' defense -- has also chosen to sit out this season. Hightower, according to NFL Network's Michael Giardi, just had a baby this month ... and his mom also has type 2 diabetes. "Me and my fiancée are just more concerned with the health of our family than football," Hightower said in a statement to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, "especially the new addition to our family." The opt-out is a big blow for the Pats, Hightower recorded 71 tackles and 5.5 sacks for New England last season ... but he's also now one of FIVE Patriots choosing to forego the season. Pats running back Brandon Bolden and offensive linemen Najee Toran and Marcus Cannon have also joined Hightower and fullback Danny Vitale in sitting out 2020. There could be more on the way as well ... players still have until the end of this week to make opt-out decisions. |

So because players cant go bar and club hopping this season then they should be more likely to opt out due to family reasons.

Opting out means you are gone in every official capacity from the NFL until at least April 2021. When the panic/hysteria inevitably dies down in October/November and a player wants to return? Too bad. |

I don't care if Mahomes goes up against XFL players, I want another Championship.

My issue with all of these athletes getting infected. They have it the easiest not to get infected. Yet they still go out and do dumb shit. Same with the coaches and staff.
