The NFL has come under fire in recent days after a report of potential collusion amongst the 32 owners was uncovered by NFL insiders Mike Florio and Pablo Torre. According to Florio, NFL owners were reportedly encouraged by commissioner Roger Goodell to begin limiting the amount of fully guaranteed contracts being handed out to veteran players.On Tuesday, Pro Football Talk released a report outlining the severity of the situation."In other words, the NFL wanted its member teams to collude," the report stated.In response, some NFL fans made clear that saving money was a skill that the league was very good at.DetroitSportsPodcast @DetroitPodcastLINKSaving money is an art!DetroitSportsPodcast @DetroitPodcastLINKHonest question -- Do you think you should have waited until closer to start of training camp to dive into deeper?
