Filed under: NFL Labor Negotiations
As the NFL and NFLPA stare each other down regarding a potential work stoppage this offseason, Roger Goodell has advised owners of a goodwill gesture he's planning in case the sides can't come to an agreement.Goodell will reduce his salary to $1 if there is a work stoppage due to a lockout. According to a report, NFL general counsel Jeff Pash will do the same, and other league executives volunteered to follow suit but have been asked by Goodell not to at this point.
The Compensation Committee will reportedly not meet to discuss a bonus for Goodell until a labor agreement is reached, as well.
The new league year is set to begin at midnight on March 4. If the sides don't agree on a new collective bargaining agreement before then, the owners will impose a lockout on the players. The union has the option to block a lockout by decertifying, which would take the battle to court.
