Now we're wading into Gene Collier's Trite Trophy territory. This year, he might be able to do an all-coronavirus edition. Between social distancing, quarantining, etc.

Steeler's starting QB 2022 will be a freshman in college this year who wont get to play.

So then we've definitely never heard of him.

If the NFL would start the season, but have to abandon it after a few games because of the virus, would you expect players’ stats to count?

Hmmm never really thought about that one. Probably not, but I'm willing to consult both the AAF and XFL on this one.

Hi Brian, if the league really wants to give Kaepernick a fair chance to rejoin the league, what do you think about extending a roster exemption to the team that signs him?

Interesting idea, though I imagine that would open a can of worms. No one got an exemption for a trailblazer like Michael Sam. Then again, teams get a practice squad exemption for guys like Christian Scotland-Wiliamson who are in the foreign players program. No such exemption if they promote him to the active roster, though.

OK everyone we're out of time. And next week at this time, I'll be out of town. That means no Monday chat. Be good in my absence, and have a nice (two) week(s).
