"Informal discussions" have begun between the NFL and the players' union about changes to the league's disciplinary system, Pittsburgh Steelers president Art Rooney II told The Washington Post.

Any changes to the disciplinary system and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's involvement in the process would be connected to an extension of the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, which currently runs through 2020.
