NEW YORK (AP) -NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says the union has made its counter proposal to the owners’ plan for an 18-game regular season.
“We continue to have dialogue,” he said Tuesday before a special performance of the play “Lombardi” to benefit the NFL Player Care Foundation. “I think that’s a positive thing.”
The owners want to play 18 regular-season and two preseason games instead of the current breakdown of 16 and four. The current collective bargaining agreement expires in March, raising fears of a potential lockout.
The next meeting between the NFL Players Association and owners is scheduled for December in Dallas.
