NFL:
NFL player representatives voted early today (February 26th) to send the new collective bargaining agreement to the players for a vote, with a simple majority of the approximately 2,000 of them needed to approve it for it to go into effect this year.
The deal, which has already been approved by the owners, includes a 17-game season and shorter pre-season. The current collective bargaining agreement expires in March 2021, but the owners want to get a new contract in place as soon as possible. If approved, the new CBA would run through the 2030 season.
