Report: NFL was ready to cancel Seahawks-Rams game, until NFLPA stepped in

The 2021 season for the Seattle Seahawks had been on the ropes for several weeks prior to the 20-10 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 15 Tuesday evening, but those hopes effectively died when refs decided to eat their whistle on a crucial fourth quarter fourth down. However, a new report Wednesday morning indicates those playoff hopes might have stayed alive a bit longer if things had been up to the league, and if the union had not stepped in.

JC Tretter said NFL wanted 3 games canceled last week & NFLPA pushed for rescheduling them to save 6 teams' paychecks.
