Trae Waynes’ agent advises him ‘not to do any football drills’ until contract with Bengals is signed

It’s been four months since COVID-19 infected the NFL offseason (and literally everything else), and the complexity of the situation has not lessened at all.

Sooner or later, players will have to make the decision to risk their health to play this year; and their decisions could ultimately be originated via advice from their agents.

For new Bengals cornerback Trae Waynes, his representation is suggesting that he not rush into team workouts until he signs his three-year contract he agreed to in March.

“I’ve advised Trae not to do any football drills, not to get out there on the field, certainly don’t do any live drills against other people,” Waynes’ agent Brian Murphy told Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer.
