The 2017 Pro Bowl will take place later this evening in Orlando and next Sunday Super Bowl LI will take place in Houston. With the end of the 2016 NFL season right around the corner, it’s time to pass along the important dates and NFL league calendar for 2017.
As you can see below, the Pittsburgh Steelers will have until March 1 to designate running back Le’Veon Bell their franchise player. That tag, however can be issued beginning February 15.
March 9 is the start of the 2017 league year and that’s when the fee agent signing period will begin.
