Profootballtalk's Mike Florio reports the league is considering delaying the start of free agency.
The legal tampering period is supposed to begin Monday, with open free agency following on Wednesday. Per Florio, an announcement would come after NFLPA voting on the new CBA concludes on Sunday. Florio reports the league is "keenly aware of the optics of players agreeing to terms on multi-million-dollar deals while the rest of the nation is adjusting to what will still be as of next week the early days of the coronavirus crisis." Many teams have already banned employee travel. Free agent visits would be extremely difficult to coordinate, not to mention put the players in a difficult spot. With the nation distracted at the dawn of a pandemic, a delay frankly seems like a no-brainer move.

ESPN's Josina Anderson reports the Cowboys, Bills, Jets and Raiders are "among the teams showing interest" in free agent Chris Harris.
The Broncos, meanwhile, supposedly have not closed the door on re-signing their No. 1 corner, but 30-year-old Harris appears all but certain to depart. Even at his advancing age for a corner, we would expect Harris' market to be fierce.

Hayden Hurst to Atlanta.Jay Glazer also saying another major trade about to go down. This is best twitter day of the year!
If I had to predict, I got a feeling Odell gets dealt, this trade or one coming.
And I don't think that qualifies as a major trade. Fun day.Hayden Hurst to Atlanta.
No - I just read that's not the trade he's referring to. Most are saying it's OBJ getting moved.And I don't think that qualifies as a major trade. Fun day.
Diggs just tweeted “It’s time for a new beginning.”No - I just read that's not the trade he's referring to. Most are saying it's OBJ getting moved.
The D'Andre Hopkins for David Johnson trade maybe?And I don't think that qualifies as a major trade. Fun day.
Joe Banner has for sure said that's not the major trade he was talking about.
Must be Ngakoue, no?Chris Trapasso, CBS: “Big-name DL is about to get traded + paid.”
Jones or Ngakoue?
Michael Silver: “Another big-name player whose name is coming up in trade talks: Rams RB Todd Gurley. As I reported in December, the team may be ready to move on.”
Would not that possible to trade him for much return today but then David Johnson and a second for Hopkins happened.Michael Silver: “Another big-name player whose name is coming up in trade talks: Rams RB Todd Gurley. As I reported in December, the team may be ready to move on.”
I wouldn’t be very surprised either way:Must be Ngakoue, no?
