Late afternoon on Tuesday, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported on a number of updates from the most-recent NFLPA call, which includes the decision for zero preseason games in August and training camp rosters potentially getting chopped down to 80 players instead of 90.
The NFL Management Council Executive Committee has not yet signed off on the 80-man roster, per source. There was discussion on giving teams option of keeping 90 and dividing the roster — i.e. keep 10 on standby — but union told players it wanted all teams to follow one rule.
