The NFLPA membership voted on a conference call this week to not play any preseason games ahead of the 2020 regular season, NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported.
The union's vote comes after it was reported that the NFL was planning on shortening the preseason from four games to two. However, as Garafolo and NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Wednesday, the NFLPA had not signed off on that decision and was planning to discuss the matter on conference calls later in the week.
With the NFLPA still opposed to preseason games, one possible camp schedule the union has discussed:
3 days: medical/equipment
21 days: strength & conditioning
10 days: unpadded practice
14 days: practice (10 max/8 padded)
Then it’d be straight into Week 1.
Around The NFL will have more on this story shortly
