After months of very little news and reports of the two sides being apart on key issues such as extending the season, word came out late Wednesday that the NFL and NFL Players Association might have a new Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) in place by the end of the week. The current CBA is set to expire at the end of the 2020 season.
Adam Schefter of ESPN was the first to break the multitude of majors changes coming to the new agreement. The two big changes for fans will be more playoff teams and eventually more regular season games.
