Summary

The NFL has officially offered to eliminate its preseason entirely and institute the NFLPA’s suggested coronavirus testing program for players. This is a big step towards starting training camp next week, but the NFL still has a number of challenges to work through. Derrick Henry and the Tennessee Titans have agreed to a $50 million contract, which solidifies a one-dimensional offense for the team next season. Antonio Brown retires (again), Chris Jones thinks the Kansas City Chiefs can win five Super Bowls, and Fox Sports analyst Nick Wright wants to become a General Manager. All that and more on this week’s GM Shuffle! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
