NFLPA Seeks Changes to NFL Media Access Policy Amid 18-Game Schedule
Jul 26, 2024, 02:21 PM
The NFL Players Association (NFLPA) is advocating for changes to the NFL's media access policy, citing players' privacy concerns. The NFLPA proposes that reporters interview players in a setting other than the locker room. This move comes two seasons after the NFL reopened locker rooms to reporters following the coronavirus pandemic. The current policy allows media access to locker rooms for 45 minutes in the middle of the day, with players required to be available for questions once a week. Critics argue that the NFLPA's stance, which follows the establishment of an 18-game schedule, may lead to financial losses for the union and question the necessity of the privacy concerns given the longstanding tradition of locker room access.
