After differences were settled and language revised over the weekend, it appears the NFL finally has a labor deal that both sides can agree on. The NFL Players Association's executive committee, according to a person from the NFLPA with knowledge of the talks, is expected to meet today and recommend approval of the 10-year collective bargaining agreement, which would be the longest in league history, as well the global settlement of legal cases.
NFL.com reported that New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees e-mailed teammates over the weekend, saying, "The deal is almost done," and that an announcement would be made "sometime Monday."
If that happens, the 32 NFL teams might open their doors by Wednesday and training camps could open by the weekend, possibly as early as Friday.
CARRY ON
