The 5 o’clock club is published several times per week during the season Dwayne Haskins Jersey White , and aims to provide a forum for reader-driven discussion at a time of day when there isn’t much NFL news being published. Feel free to introduce topics that interest you in the comments below.Mike Jones of USA Today recently published an article that focuses on the potential for a labor dispute in association with the expiration of the 2011 Collective Bargaining Agreement at the end of the 2020 season.There have been numerous reports that both sides — the NFL and the NFL Players Association — are talking to each other, and that the talks are positive.It has been further reported that the owners would like to get a deal done before the 2020 season begins, not allowing a lapse between the end of the current agreement and the start of the next one.Reports that I have read have often indicated that this desire to get a deal done is driven by the prospect of inking new TV and other distribution deals in the coming year.These deals will be easier to negotiate successfully if the labor agreement with players is in place and the potential for industrial action is off the table.Related: The 2021 CBA: TV rights, happy owners, satisfied players and a prosperous league — or not?The leadership of the NFLPA is taking nothing for granted.DeMaurice Smith, the players association point man Dwayne Haskins Jersey , has been making the rounds, talking to players, and spreading his message.And what, exactly, is his message?WORK STOPPAGE IS COMING. #STAYREADYAt least, according to the Mike Jones article.In some ways Wes Martin Jersey , I find ithard to imagine that either side — players or owners — would instigate a work stoppage or lockout.After all, the current CBA, while it has a few issues that could be ironed out, has been a boon to veteran players and owners alike.Related: The upcoming CBA could change the value of rookie contractsBy implementing the rookie wage scale that is tied to draft position, the system frees up millions of dollars per team that must be spent on veteran players.We’ve seen the salaries for top-end veterans skyrocket over the past 9 years.Owners have never had it better financially.League revenue is growing yearly, and with the players getting less than half the money in salaries and benefits Womens Bryce Love Jersey , the owners are being rewarded with franchise valuations that are spiraling upward with no end in sight.But there are issues to discuss:17 game season5th year option/franchise tag/quicker path to free agency34-week pay schedule instead of the current 17Related: What should the NFLPA be fighting for in the next CBA?Related: One more suggestion from OTC: raise the minimum wage for NFL players Phil Taylor, a first-round pick of the Cleveland Browns in 2011, has announced his retirement from football.“I’d like to thank the NFL and the Cleveland Browns for drafting me,” Taylor wrote in a post on his Twitter page. “It’s been a fun and tough 8 years. I’ve made my home in NE Ohio with my family. I love the Cleveland fans and can’t wait to give back to the community that supported me. I’m officially retiring!”Taylor hasn’t appeared in a regular season NFL game since 2014 with the Browns. Stops with the Denver Broncos and Washington Redskins since then have proven unsuccessful as injuries helped to derail his career. He was released as a part of final roster cuts with bid to make a roster again.Taylor appeared in just 44 games in four seasons with the Browns. He was a member of the 2011 Pro Football Writers’ Association All-Rookie Team after recording 59 tackles and four sacks in the only full 16-game season of his career. Knee injuries ended his 2014 season and kept him out of the NFL for all of 2015. He joined the Broncos in 2018 before a knee injury on the second day of training camp landed him on injured reserve.In perhaps his best chance to restart his career with Washington in 2017, a torn quadriceps ended the comeback in the preseason. He re-signed with the team for 2018 but did not make the roster.
