Every season, a different set of players face a cro  
 hats">Milwaukee Bucks Hats sroads or have something 
 to prove for a variety of reasons. The most common 
 reasons are related to age, contract or salary cap 
 concerns, injury, poor performance or off-field i sues. 
 Ten players to keep an eye on during the 2020 season who 
 fit into one of those categories are below. Quarterback , 
 who the released in late March, was omitted since he 
 remains unsigned, although he has plenty to prove after 
 mi sing most of the last season and a half with shoulder 
 and foot injuries. DE J.J. WattWatt was considered the 
 closest thing to a modern day Reggie White, who is 
 arguably the greatest defensive football player of all-
 time, before being bitten by the injury bug. The three-
 time Defensive Player of the Year has mi sed 32 of the 
 last 64 regular season games because of a variety of 
 injuries.Watt, who has two years remaining on his 
 contract for $33 million, recognizes he isn't in a 
 position to ask for a new deal. He was still an impact 
 player the last time he was healthy in 2018; Watt led the 
 AFC with 16 sacks while being named first-team All-Pro 
 for the first time since 2015.   QB The Bears acquired 
 from the in a trade because the team hasn't been 
 satisfied with Trubisky, 2017's second overall pick. It 
 will be an open competition between Foles and Trubisky 
 for Chicago's starting quarterback job.The Bears declined 
 to pick up their fifth-year option with Trubisky for 
 $24.837 million in 2021. If Trubisky beats out Foles, 
 he'll have a much shorter lease than in his previous 
 three seasons. As 2015's top two picks, and discovered, 
 it will be difficult for Trubisky to find a job as a 
 starter in 2021 free agency if he doesn't perform well 
 this season or if he loses the quarterback competition.  
 RB Gurley was arguably the NFL's best running back before 
 being slowed by left knee problems late in the 2018 
 season. The released Gurley in March following a 
 lackluster 2019 campaign in which he rushed for a career 
 low 857 yards despite the Rams signing him to a four-
 year, $57.5 million contract extension in 2018 with two 
 years remaining on his rookie contract.  Gurley didn't 
 play any of his new contract years, since his four-year 
 extension ran from 2020 through 2023. He made  
 jeresy/robin-lopez-jersey">Robin Lopez Jersey out 
 like a bandit from the deal. Gurley is $20 million better 
 off from the extension than playing out his rookie 
 contract.He quickly signed a one-year deal for $5.5 
 million with the Falcons. Gurley will be a steal if he 
 can regain the form that made him 2017's NFL Offensive 
 Player of the Year when he led the league with 2,093 
 yards from scrimmage (combined rushing and receiving 
 yards) and 19 touchdowns, Doing so could led to another 
 big payday for the 25-year-old.Texans RB Johnson is 
 getting a new lease on his NFL life because of his trade 
 to the Texans. He fell out of favor with the last season 
 jeresy/oscar-robertson-jersey">Oscar Robertson 
 Jersey  after was acquired before the late October 
 trading deadline.  Johnson is expected to be a focal 
 point of the Texans' offense. His last highly productive 
 season was in 2016 when he led the NFL with 2,118 yards 
 from scrimmage and 20 touchdowns. An inability to 
 capitalize on the opportunity could lead to a short stint 
 in Houston. $9 million of salary cap space would be 
 gained should the Texans part ways with Johnson in 2021. 
 WR Jeffery's bet on himself by signing a one-year, $9.5 
 million deal (worth up to $14 million through incentives) 
 in 2017 paid off when the Eagles signed him to a four-
 year, $52 million extension later that season. Not a lot 
 has gone right for Jeffery in Philadelphia recently.There 
 have been numerous reports of a strained relationship 
 with quarterback . Jeffery's contract and his December 
 surgery for a Lisfranc foot injury may be the only things 
 keeping on the Eagles' roster. The injury kills his trade 
 value, and cutting him is cost prohibitive because a 2019 
 contract restructure fully guaranteed his $9.91 million 
 2020 base salary.  Although the Eagles would have 
 $15,396,500 and 10,609,500 salary cap charges in 2020 and 
 2021 by releasing Jeffery, skepticism about him being in 
 Philadelphia this season exists. A suming Jeffery can put 
 the foot injury behind him and is still with the team, it 
 remains to be seen what type of opportunity he'll get 
 with a healthy , being selected in the first round and 
 acquisition via trade. CB Rhodes' regre sion last season 
 was startling considering he earned first-team All-Pro 
 honors in 2017. The dumped Rhodes to pick up $8.1 million 
 of much needed cap room. He called getting released a 
 reality check.Rhodes signed a one-year, $ 
 shirts">Milwaukee Bucks T-Shirts 3 million deal 
 (worth up to $4.25 million with incentives) with the 
 Colts. A bounce-back season could put Rhodes in line for 
 a contract averaging more than his $14.02 million per 
 year deal with the Vikings since cornerbacks who excel in 
 coverage are valuable commodities.   WR Smith-Schuster 
 was named Steelers MVP in 2018 for a breakout season in 
 which he had 111 catches for 1,426 yards with seven 
 touchdowns. He was expected to become Pittsburgh's 
 primary receiving threat in 2019 with departure.It didn't 
 work out that way for Smith-Schuster, as he caught 42 pa 
 ses for 552 yards in 12 games last season. Smith-Schuster 
 will be getting a huge upgrade at quarterback in 2020 
 with returning after mi sing the final 14 games last 
 season due to an elbow injury that required surgery. 2020 
 could go a long way in determining whether Smith-Schuster 
 is a No. 1 wide receiver or a No. 2 who needs another 
 wideout drawing coverage away from him to be highly 
 effective. OLB Beasley was largely a disappointment for 
 the Falcons after leading the NFL with 15.5 sacks in 
 2016. He had 14 sacks in the next 42 games he played 
 following what was considered his breakout performance. 
 Beasley finished the 2019 season strong with four sacks 
 in the last four games, but it wasn't enough for the 
 Falcons to make an attempt to re-sign him.  The Falcons 
 opted to give , Jr. a three-year, $45 million contract 
 (worth a maximum of $48 million through salary 
 escalators) containing $29 million in guarantees while 
 Beasley took a one-year, $9.5 million deal with another 
 $2.5 million in incentives from the Titans. Living up to 
 the potential that made Beasley 2015's eighth overall 
 pick will put him in a position to sign a lucrative 
 contract in 2021 because players who  
 jeresy">Milwaukee Bucks Jeresy can consistently pre 
 sure opposing quarterbacks are paid a premium.Falcons TE 
 The Falcons sent second- and fifth-round picks to the for 
 Hurst and a fourth-round pick in order to replace , who 
 became the NFL's highest-paid tight end with the four-
 year, $42 million deal he received from the in free 
 agency. Hurst was expendable in Baltimore because is one 
 of the NFL's best blocking tight ends and earned Pro Bowl 
 honors last season as a second-year player.Falcons 
 quarterback is impre sed with Hurst's speed and 
 athleticism. If Hurst is the mismatch problem Ryan thinks 
 he can be, the Falcons won't hesitate to pick up the 2018 
 first-round pick's fifth-year option next offseason.   OT
