The NFL owners accepted the negotiated terms of a new collective bargaining agreement Thursday, but some star players are pushing back.
Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt tweeted Thursday night that he was a "hard no" on the new CBA, and 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman strongly agreed.
The proposed CBA reportedly would give the NFL option to expand the regular season from 16 games to 17 and expand the playoffs to feature seven teams from each conference. Sherman told reporters in January that the league's push for a longer regular season flies in the face of their commitment to player safety.
