New Orleans Saints' Alvin Kamara among players displeased with likely 17-game NFL schedule

Some NFL standouts shared their displeasure on social media Sunday over this week's expected expansion to a 17-game schedule.

Owners are scheduled to decide on whether to approve the expansion during their virtual league meetings Tuesday and Wednesday.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was one of the most vocal critics Sunday after ESPN's Adam Schefter tweeted that the league has played a 16-game regular season since 1978 -- by far the longest stretch without a change in NFL history.

"S--- dumb... as hell," he tweeted.

Other players to weigh in included Green Bay Packers safety Adrian Amos, Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay and Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan.
