The NFL and NFLPA agreed to a deal on Friday that will essentially green-light the NFL season after much deliberation. From potential opt-out clauses for players who are concerned about the COVID-19 pandemic to scheduling updates and roster limits, there isn’t much that wasn’t addressed. One of the things that will remain the same, however, is the salary cap floor, which will not sink below $175M.
The great news here is that Howie Roseman knows what he’s working with. The idea is that the NFL will try to negate the losses of this period over the next few seasons, meaning teams can plan for the short-term as they started out this offseason.
