NFLPA president says players haven’t agreed to a re-opening plan

NFL players have not yet agreed to return to team facilities.

NFL teams have started re-opening their facilities but players have not yet agreed to return to training amid COVID-19, NFL Players Association president JC Tretter tweeted on Tuesday.

“Players: our union has not agreed to any reopening plan,” Tretter wrote on his Twitter page, @JCTretter. “Any reports about coming back to work are hypothetical. You will hear from the NFLPA when there are new developments.”

Tretter is the Browns’ starting center. He was voted the NFLPA’s new president in March.

The Broncos have started slowly re-opening their facilities but only players rehabbing from injuries are allowed at the training facility. There have been reports that NFL teams might hold minicamps in mid-June.

Denver is hoping to start training camp on time in late July. The Broncos’ first preseason game has been scheduled for Aug. 15 and their regular-season opener is set to take place on Sept. 14. View the team’s full schedule here.
