CBA = Collective Bargaining Agreement
NFLPA= NFL Player’s Association
Agents= Represents the players
The two acronyms are important because one determines what is in the other. The NFLPA negotiations the CBA for the players. The agents negotiate the contracts for the players.
If NFL players want to make better money, more guaranteed money, don’t be mad at the owners, be mad at the NFLPA and your agent.
Until then I guess you can just rant on Twitter like Duke Ihenacho.
All this guaranteed money NBA throwing. Meanwhile the NFL, which generates the most money wont even make the league minimum $1M

Yes $1M minimum. That means every single player's salary in the NFL should start there. Highest risk of injury..brain trauma, richest league

No security in football. Obviously unless you hit the lick.
