The Miami Dolphins open training camp a week from today, beginning their ramp up toward the 2016 regular season. To help us all great ready for training camp, we put together a look at the league’s rules, as outlined in the Collective Bargaining Agreement, pertaining to training camps.
Reporting (Article 23, Section 5)
The CBA allows for two different report dates, though not all teams take advantage of this. Rookies and first-year players (defined as any player who has not yet accrued a full season under the league’s rules) can report up to seven days prior to the veterans.
