NFL Extends Free Agency Start Date

The NFL's free agency period was supposed to start tonight at midnight. But, due to the labor impasse, the owners and NFLPA agreed to extend the start of free agency for three more days.

If no agreement is reached, many teams will be struggling to comply with the NFL salary cap. The cap number is $94.5 million, and teams expected it to be about $10 million higher.
