Sadly, not yet. The players have a meeting in about 45 minutes, the lawsuit still has to get figured out, and the Union has to (most likely has to anyway), well, reunite. LOL

We should know something definitive soon though.

Not only does the resolution of the lawsuit have to be figured out, but, from the players' perspective, that resolution has to be at least neutral... in other words, the owners and players have to agree that de-certifying the NFLPA as a bargaining unit can not be declared as illegal. The players want to keep that arrow in their quiver in case they need it in 2021.
