NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement

The NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) is a contract between the National Football League (NFL) and its players, represented by the NFL Players Association (NFLPA). It outlines the rules and regulations governing player employment, including salaries, benefits, working conditions, and the overall management of the league. The CBA also sets the framework for salary caps, player trades, and disciplinary actions. This agreement is crucial for ensuring fair treatment of players while balancing the financial interests of teams and the league. Periodically, the CBA is negotiated and may be updated to reflect changes in the sport and society.
