NFL, NFLPA Agree on 7 Day Extension by the Sports Network

 

Washington, DC (Sports Network) – The NFL and NFL Players Association agreed Friday to a seven-day extension of negotiations for a new collective bargaining agreement.

The original CBA was set to expire at midnight on Thursday, but the sides agreed to a 24-hour extension under the direction of federal mediator George Cohen.

“We met for a lot of days and we’re going to meet for more,” NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said following Friday’s extension. “We are continuing to work hard, trying to identify solutions. We believe that, as I’ve said many times before, that this will be solved through negotiations. And that’s what we’re focused on.”

The sides have been meeting for the past two weeks to resolve their issues, which center around how the owners and players are to divide about $9 billion in annual revenue.

A rookie wage scale, regular season expansion and benefits for retired players are also some of the unresolved differences.

The sides will reportedly take the weekend to talk within their own camps before coming back together on Monday. The new deadline is Friday, March 11 at 5 p.m. (et).

No roster moves are permitted until a new CBA is negotiated.
