CBS Sports Football Pick Six Newsletter
 
I'll be honest: The fact we agree this much on Week 1 picks worries me. Even Pete Prisco and I see eye-to-eye. R.J. White and SportsLine's Kenny White, too: We're all aboard the Packers, Cardinals and Rams as we dive into our picks and best bets, but maybe that means we'll start on a HEATER; plus check out Jason La Canfora's can't-miss picks.
This weekend we are going to see players of all races demonstrating during pregame ceremonies in the fight for racial equality. Jonathan Jones points out that Black players specifically have a lot to consider when figuring out how to publicly display their emotions, and one prominent Black agent offered his advice. Jonathan has more notes; here are the four teams that will have different rules for sideline masks.
Did you pick Clyde Edwards-Helaire in the top 5 of your fantasy draft? Well, you're already looking like a genius, and that's far from the only takeaway after Kansas City's opening-night victory over the Texans. Tyler Sullivan broke it all down, including why Houston lost, and why the defending champs covered the spread.

COVID-19 threw a curveball at everyone, even our Practice Squad Power Rankings. Teams now can have up to six veterans on the practice squad, but we're not going there. Chris Trapasso is only including rookies through third-year players, and he's kicking off the season with a top 10 that has this 49ers receiver at No. 1.
DeAndre Hopkins shocked the NFL community this week when news broke of the deal he negotiated without an agent. Joel Corry says the contract is better than anybody could have imagined, and as a former NFL agent himself, Joel should know. How was Hopkins able to do it? Joel breaks it all down, and says even some of the concessions the WR got are stunning.
We have one professional football contest in the books and 15 more to go this weekend, and you know what that means: It's time to LOOK AHEAD TO WEEK 2. R.J. White says there are plenty of Week 2 lines that offer value based on what's expected in Week 1, including Broncos at Steelers, whose line hasn't moved much since May.
