It's easy, and only takes a few moments.No doubt someone will whine about having both Bethel and Slater on the team ! « They play the same role and make 2M+ !?! »With Nate Ebner gone and Brandon Bolden opting out, who will we all cut on our preseason roster projections?
I hope they all opt out.

Question: What are the cardiovascular effects in unselected patients with recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)?
Findings: In this cohort study including 100 patients recently recovered from COVID-19 identified from a COVID-19 test center, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed cardiac involvement in 78 patients (78%) and ongoing myocardial inflammation in 60 patients (60%), which was independent of preexisting conditions, severity and overall course of the acute illness, and the time from the original diagnosis.
Meaning: These findings indicate the need for ongoing investigation of the long-term cardiovascular consequences of COVID-19.

I looked at the study - thanks for the link.
The study's results opening line is: Results Of the 100 included patients, 53 (53%) were male, and the median (interquartile range [IQR]) age was 49 (45-53) years.
I agree we need to know more, but posting a study with a median age of 45-53 and half the participants being female, without noting that, and implying the study applies to 25 - 33 year old men is not being fully transparent. Hard to take any comments serious from someone who does not openly admit the facts that mitigate the relevance of the study quoted.
Yes, but all that will be left is their base salary. If they are cut, then I think they get that money back on the cap. Hightower probably won't be cut, but Bolden or Cannon might.
I guess that's the other side of the coin, yeah - at least it isn't a major contention year. The "glass half full" take lol.+1 +1 +1 +1 +1
I was thinking the exact same thing today about how glad I was that this didn't take place during a season where the Patriots were serious contenders. This is happening during a year where the Patriots were eating salary cap and rebuilding.
So is that how it works? The signing bonus portion of their cap hit remains but their actual salary advances up a year? That sets up an interesting situation if a player with a big signing bonus but a really small salary with only a year left on their deal opts out... They kind of guarantee themselves a job next year since the team would save basically nothing by cutting them. Though that might also make them nice in a trade? Lots of questions.Yes, but all that will be left is their base salary. If they are cut, then I think they get that money back on the cap. Hightower probably won't be cut, but Bolden or Cannon might.

Do the Pats get an exemption for the Cap?
Thanks for sharing, this is a topic I've had a hard time getting solid information on. As otherwise noted, the age group likely being a lot higher overall than the NFL age group does discount this slightly, but not entirely by any means - more information is definitely needed.I hope they all opt out.

We have a winner!It’s tough most of our players opting out
are 30 and older. They may not play for the team again.
