What the New CBA Means for the Cincinnati Bengals
The collective bargaining agreement has officially been ratified. Here’s what it means for the Cincinnati Bengals and their players.
According to the National Football League Player Association, the new collective bargaining agreement has been ratified in a vote of 1,019 to 959.
The news comes just one day before the legal tampering period and three days before the free agency period is slated to begin.
Some of the major points of emphasis include players receiving an increased share of revenue, a 17-game regular season beginning in 2021, and an expanded playoff field of 14 teams, starting next year, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
