With the NFLPA announcing Monday that it needed more time to garner all of the votes on a potential new CBA from Thursday to Saturday, it threw a wrench into the works for the NFL's upcoming start of the new league year.
The NFL has adjusted accordingly, shifting the date of the deadline for teams to use the franchise or transition tags from Thursday at 4 p.m. to 11:59 a.m. Monday.
The move was necessitated due to the uncertainty surrounding the voting on the new CBA. If a new CBA is approved, it would go into effect for the 2020 season.
