The NFL Players Association is reportedly proposing a major overhaul of offseason training, and the impact of those changes could mean different things for different people.
The NFL Players Association is working on a proposal to the league that would fundamentally change how and when the league's teams prepare players for the coming season. And that change could happen as early as next offseason if adopted by the league. The players' union is finalizing the proposal that would eliminate on-field work -- such as is currently underway around the NFL -- in the spring. Veteran players instead would begin their preparations for the season in earnest in June.
So Spring Football would be eliminated in the NFL. The End Of Spring Football? It would mean a training camp schedule that would seemingly begin in late June or early July and ramp up to regular-season games in September. Training camps currently begin around the last days of July. As it currently stands, the middle of June and early July are generally an inactive time around the NFL.
New Coaches At A Disadvantage This, by the way, wouldn't only affect teams with new head coaches. Every year, a number of teams change their offensive or defensive coordinators and install new systems on either side of the ball. So even when the head coach is the same, the playbook can change for a number of teams. This season, for example, 24 teams have new head coaches, or new offensive or defensive coordinators.
