The NFL Players Association voted to ratify a new collective bargaining agreement, but Carolina Panthers safety Eric Reid disapproves.

"I'm gutted for the families who's livelihoods depend on their disability benefits," Reid tweeted Sunday afternoon. "I'm blown away that many current players don't realize how bad the economics of the deal are and voted it through."

The 28-year-old also reacted to Antonio Cromartie's outline of the new terms on total and permanent disability:

The NFLPA confirmed that the vote was 1,019 to 959 in favor of the proposed CBA, which goes into effect immediately and runs through the 2030 season.
