NFLPA Implements New Media Policy, Ted Karras Explains 45-Minute Locker Room Access
Oct 4, 2024, 01:15 PM
The NFL Players Association (NFLPA) has pushed for a new media policy that restricts locker room access for reporters. This move is aimed at protecting the privacy and dignity of players, as well as creating a safer workplace. Bengals player representative Ted Karras explained that the policy is designed to 'protect the sanctity' of locker rooms across the NFL. The new rules stipulate that locker rooms must be open to media for 45 minutes on designated days, but actual interviews may be conducted outside the locker room at the club's or player's request. The policy follows incidents where inappropriate footage of players was broadcasted. The NFLPA's Executive Committee has issued a statement emphasizing the importance of respecting players' dignity.
