For the most part, these guys are a combination of well into their careers, who have made their money, and impending UFA unlikely to play for their team much longer. However as the depth chart shifts up by one, the guys joining the teams aren’t likely in that same place of privilege and their career can’t afford them sitting out.
I’m taking solace in the fact that the new guys will typically be younger and even less likely to have an adverse COVID outcome. I recognize that I’m in the minority but the imbalance of freedom makes me slightly uneasy.
