Russell Okung Files Complaint Of Bad Faith Negotiating Against NFLPA 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Mar 10, 2020 1:39 am

Russell Okung has accused the National Football League Players Association of negotiating the proposed CBA in bad faith, taking the step of filing an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board.

In the filing, Okung is accusing NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith of pushing a vote on the new CBA through to the entire group of players despite the objections and vote of the NFLPA executive committee.

During a February vote, the executive committee voted 6-5 not to recommend the proposed CBA to players.
