JC Tretter, executive director of the NFL Players Association, stated that there is no urgency to negotiate a new Collective Bargaining Agreement. Appearing on The Rich Eisen Show, Tretter explained that the current CBA lasts for five more seasons, and any potential discussions will wait until he speaks with players across all 32 teams.
