    IMO this is more about money than anything else. Forbes spent most of last year injured, appearing in only 2 games (both Cincy games). If he opts out, he can get healthy for a whole year, gets $150k for the season and his contract tolls. Guys on the roster bubble may be able to make more money by opting out.

    I think there’s going to be many, many more players opting out, especially now that a few stars are doing it. Lower level players have an incentive to do so, and established players are already millionaires, so why take a risk playing this year? It took baseball one weekend to start postponing games. How is the NFL going to deal with that?

    In case anyone was wondering what’s up with MLB. Not Browns news, but a likely preview of how the NFL season might go.
