Steelers C Maurkice Pouncey Strongly Urges Players To Vote Against Latest CBA Proposal

Will there be a new CBA in place soon? Time will tell but the latest reports as of last night indicated that a player vote would be taking place in the near future as the NFLPA Board of Player Representatives voted 17-14 with one abstention to send the proposal to the membership.

The NFLPA and NFL announced via twitter that “The NFLPA Board of Player Representatives voted to send the proposed collective bargaining agreement to the membership for a vote.”

The proposed 10-year-collective bargaining agreement, which was ratified by owners of the 32 NFL teams, seeks to include a 17-game regular season, a reduced preseason, an expanded set of playoffs and a more lenient policy on marijuana use and changed system of player discipline.
