About this episode

This episode discusses the NFL Collusion scandal and the findings of the arbitrator regarding guaranteed contracts.

On this episode, we look at the recent NFL Collusion scandal, where the NFL Players Association filed a grievance, basically saying: “Hey, we think owners are quietly working together to limit guaranteed contracts.” So did NFL owners secretly agree not to pay players? The careful answer is: The arbitrator reportedly found the league encouraged owners to reduce guaranteed contracts… …but ruled there wasn’t enough evidence proving coordinated collusion between teams.
