This December\u2019s meeting will happen not in person but by videoconference.<\/p>\n<p>Via Mark Maske of the Washington Post, a two-hour virtual meeting is <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MarkMaske\/status\/1998498941122297910?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">scheduled for Wednesday<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The specific topics that will be addressed aren\u2019t known. Maske identifies one that won\u2019t be \u2014 the pending extension to Commissioner Roger Goodell\u2019s contract.<\/p>\n<p>The 66-year-old Goodell\u2019s current deal expires in March 2027. And while it\u2019s highly unlikely that another sports league will be clamoring to pay Goodell as much or more than the NFL pays him, the NFL still has no clear succession plan. <\/p>\n<p>That gives Goodell leverage, especially with CBA negotiations in the offing and the ability to pull the plug prematurely on the existing broadcast deals.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, folks like Cowboys owner Jerry Jones have argued that the NFL pays Goodell much more than it needs to. If Goodell leaves in March 2027, it\u2019s possible no amount of money would avoid the problems that a change in Goodell\u2019s 20-year tenure would cause, if they aren\u2019t ready to pivot to someone whom they believe will shepherd Big Shield to the best possible outcomes with the NFL Players Association and the various networks and streamers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The NFL\u2019s owners regularly meet every March, May, October, and December.
