Hours after a report of a potential widespread opening of NFL team facilities and a return to normalcy caught fire, Browns center and NFLPA president JC Tretter doused it with some cold-watered reality.
Responding to the initial report from Yahoo Sports, Tretter sent a message to his fellow NFL players on Twitter. In it, the newly elected president of the union terms the potential opening of team facilities and return of in-person coaching as “hypothetical”. The promise of training camps operating as regularly scheduled in June will need to take a pause based on Tretter’s representation of the NFLPA’s position.
Players: our union has not agreed to any reopening plan. Any reports about coming back to work are hypothetical. You will hear from the NFLPA when there are new developments.
