Still not at OTAs
Based on multiple reporters, these three players continued to be absent.
- QB Jacoby Brissett
- OLB Josh Sweat
- DL Walter Nolen Jr.
Nolen is still recovering from a knee injury he suffered late last season. Brissett continues to be be absent while in a contract dispute with the team, while Sweat's absence isn't known. It is the voluntary part of the offseason, but there are rumors of trade talks, so we will know more once minicamp starts next week.
