NFLPA Files Grievance With League Over Anthem Policy

The NFLPA today filed a grievance with the league "challenging its national anthem policy." The union said that the "new policy, which the league imposed without consultation with the NFLPA, is inconsistent" with the CBA and "infringes on players' rights." The NFLPA also said that it has "proposed having its executive committee talking to the NFL instead of proceeding with litigation," and that the league "has agreed to those discussions" (AP, 7/10). See the full statement on NFLPA.com.
