NFLPA held a 2-hour call today for player reps. Lots of info re: season plans. Players could face fines for conduct detrimental if they're found to have spread COVID by engaging in "reckless" behavior away from the facility, such as eating out at restaurants or riding in Ubers.
Per source familiar with the discussion, some players are unhappy with proposed face shields they would wear to play, practice, work out, etc. Concern about their effect on vision and breathing while playing.
Other items from NFLPA call:
-Meetings, media access likely to be virtual, not in-person.
-Current proposal is to test every other day in camp, players pushing for daily testing. Public access to testing is a factor.
-Players will stay in their homes, not team hotels, for camp.

Sources said there is definitely some sentiment among players of, "Why are we playing at all if it's this unsafe?" A ton of questions still have to be answered before they feel good about playing. There's another NFLPA call scheduled for Friday for all players, not just reps.
