The NFL has already reportedly cut its preseason schedule in half due to the COVID-19 pandemic this week.
The NFL Players Association, however, apparently wants them all gone.
The NFLPA’s board of player representatives voted unanimously to recommend not playing any preseason games at all this fall on Thursday night, according to ESPN’s Dan Graziano.
The NFL has yet to formally announce the elimination of two preseason games — it’s expected to cut Week 1 and Week 4. According to ESPN, it’s not clear if the league will even listen to the NFLPA’s recommendation.
