"The commitment extends and expands the initial deal owners struck with the Players Coalition that likely would have surpassed $100 million during its term. ... The additional funds owners have approved are intended to 'combat systemic racism and support the battle against the ongoing and historic injustices faced by African-Americans,' one league official wrote in a text message to The Undefeated."
