Patriots are opt out central
The team that is suffering the most from opt outs is the New England Patriots. The Patriots have been a Super Bowl contender for decades, but that may change this season. They have already parted ways with Hall-of-famer Tom Brady and now the roster is getting thinner and thinner. Head coach Bill Belichick and his coaching staff will be tested this season with all of the absences that seem to be growing every day.
The Patriots’ defense has lost five starters from last year — Collins, Hightower, Van Now, Chung, Harmon — that represented 33 percent of the team’s defensive snaps. Time for Chase Winovich, Ju’Whaun Bentley and Kyle Dugger to take over

Updated NFL odds after the opt out
As NFL players continue to opt out, the NFL betting odds will change. This only makes sense as teams that lose key players on the offense and defense will struggle to find suitable replacements. As the players remove themselves from play this season the odds will change and if you plan on betting you need to stay on top of all the changes.
We will strive to constantly provide updates from the top sportsbooks along with betting bonuses for the upcoming season.
