NFLPA Proposes Ending Voluntary Workouts, Extending Training Camp Amid 18-Game Season Push
May 29, 2024, 04:40 PM
The NFL Players Association (NFLPA) is proposing significant changes to the offseason schedule, including the elimination of voluntary offseason workouts in favor of a longer training camp starting as early as mid-June. This proposal is part of the ongoing negotiations as the league pushes for an 18-game season, with the current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) expiring in 2031. The NFLPA's stance is that no other league requires players to report before training camp. However, the proposal has been met with widespread criticism from players, coaches, and personnel, who argue that it would disrupt family time and vacations, and extend the already grueling training camp period. Browns' player Shelby Harris voiced strong opposition, stating, 'Nobody wants anything to do with this change.' Critics also note that the changes could negatively impact rookies and scouts.
