9:42 a.m.: CBS Sports reports that perhaps Arizona pass-rusher Chandler Jones could soon be available. He’d look great in the Silver and Black.

1:22 p.m.: The Raiders are one of several teams looking at CFL pass catcher Jevon Cottoy.
Canadian WR/TE Jevon Cottoy is scheduled to work out for the #49ers next week, per source. He previously worked out for the #Texans, #Raiders, #Patriots and #Saints -- significant interest in the 6-foot-5, 230-pound Cottoy, who had 38 catches for the CFL's BC Lions in 2019.

11:08 a.m.: Fans can tailgate at Allegiant Stadium this season.
Clarification: Spots in the stadium’s footprint are $100, the spots offsite at the Frias parking lot on Valley View and Reno are $40. Both will allow tailgating. So there’s options, as far as distance and cost go. pic.twitter.com/P7BRxEveXn

1:31 p.m.: Some good rules caused by COVID may stick in 2021.
Nothing official, but all signs point to the NFL and NFLPA keeping in place for 2021 several of last year’s COVID-related changes to roster rules, including unlimited/faster return from IR and 16-man practice squads, per sources. Those tweaks were popular with teams and players.
