New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr doesn't sound like he supports the rumored NFL Players Association proposal that would significantly overhaul the offseason schedule.

Appearing on the Green Light with Chris Long podcast (starts at 11:15 mark), Carr explained he thinks "the skill that it takes to play all of our positions would go down because you have less time on task" if the rumored changes go into effect.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported on Tuesday that the NFLPA was working to finalize a proposal that would eliminate the voluntary offseason programs teams hold during the spring and replace it with a longer training camp ramp-up that would have players reporting sometime between mid-June and early-July.
