According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, it has been reported that if the NFL expands its playoff format from 12 to 14 teams that playoff reseeding could be a possibility.
The Score has stated that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday that the owners will discuss expanding the playoffs in March.
According to Mortensen, part of the formula that will be discusses is giving home games to two divisional champs in each conference and seeding the other eight teams by their win-loss record. Multiple league sources believe that playoff expansion will influence change for playoff seeding.
