Retirements:
* QB Derek Anderson officially announced his retirement from the NFL [Bills]. He's been removed from the roster and added to the retired list.
* I'm monitoring the situation with OG Richie Incognito still. More and more reports are coming out that he's healthy mentally and prepared to sign/play again. If and when he does I'll add him back as necessary.
Misc. Edits:
* OLB Telvin Smith announced he is stepping away from football indefinitely. [Jaguars]. Apparently he is not playing in the 2019-20 season so I have removed him from the Jaguars depth chart.
* OLB/EDGE Duke Ejiofor has been placed on I.R. and removed from the depth chart [Texans].
* OLB Kendell Beckwith has been placed on the NFI list [Buccaneers]. He was already removed from my depth chart due to anticipation of this, but it's official now.
* Miami's offensive line has been adjusted. Dolphins offensive line coach confirmed that Jordan Mills, Isaiah Prince and Zach Sterup will play exclusively at RT during the offseason until one of them emerges as the starter. Rookie Michael Deiter is expected to win the starting LG job however will be playing both guard positions in camp and pre-season.
* OLB Sean Lee has been switched to the strongside (LOLB). Dallas' coaches confirmed the move.
* I've been adding a couple players here and there to the roster that help fill voids.
These are players that I either removed previous or EA does not have them in the game. I most recently added today WR Byron Pringle [Chiefs] and CB Chandon Sullivan [Packers]. There's a few others I've added over the past couple days but were smaller OVR and less relevant.
NFL Draft / UDFAs:
* I will continue to work on UDFAs today. I've been able to add a couple more and will continue to add more over the next 48 hours.
As of now the following UDFAs have been added and are available:
QB Brett Rypien [Broncos], RB Elijah Holyfield [Panthers], WR Emanuel Hall [Bears], WR David Sills [Bills], WR Stanley Morgan [Bengals], WR Jon'Vea Johnson [Cowboys], WR Felton Davis [Chiefs], RG Deion Calhoun [Dolphins] and FB Alec Ingold [Raiders].
* Rookie Jersey Number Assignments are still ongoing. Updates were done to the Cardinals, Dolphins, Lions and Titans today. This includes jersey numbers corrections from the past few days as well.
New Twitter Account:
I set up a new Twitter account. I'm brand new to this and have zero clue how it all works but I'm giving it a test run to see what kind of response I get from it. Hopefully it helps bring more traffic to Operation Sports as well. I've had quite a few people over the past 3 years encourage me to get a YouTube Channel or Twitter account to follow, but I'm 35 years old so those things didn't seem like something I'd be into. I'm giving the Twitter account 1-2 weeks as a test run and we will go from there.
My account on there is @xAPATHYx13
