Maybe to put this a way that won’t make everyone mad.

“NFL tells teams players to not try and confuse things when reporting eligible.”

Option 2 or 3 make the most sense to me but option 1 is probably the best option and most hands off.

This kind of reminds me when I was small and decided to rename myself from my nick name to my dads name…. Which was also my actual name I just didn’t know it….

Let’s go tech!

And here I thought I’d like being here……
