Here I am, once again, with no power or authority, stating the case for the NFL to create unaffiliated practice teams. With the league reportedly strongly considering trimming 90-man rosters down to 75 or 80, you’re going to have between 320 and 480 unemployed players, the majority of whom would probably love to still be getting paid to be practicing somewhere.
With this number of players, you could fairly easily create four to eight practice teams, who could be set up in different regions of the country. There is no reason the NFL couldn’t find coaches willing to work and train them.
