Things look like they’ll get a bit more provocative in the NFL playoffs picture this upcoming season.
On Wednesday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the league is likely to expand the postseason picture from 12 teams to 14 teams, kicking off as soon as this upcoming season as soon as the new collective bargaining agreement is reached.
Per Schefter:
Under the current CBA proposal that NFL owners are pushing for, the playoff field would be expanded to seven teams from each conference, while the regular season would be increased to 17 games per team and the preseason shortened to three games per team, sources said.
