during the last collective bargaining agreement negotiations. For them, it’s about money. Shocker. Players may not receive game checks in the preseason, but these contests do still generate a fair amount of revenue — between $3.1 million and $6.2 million per team.NFL coaches, general managers, scouts, unproven players and their agents would largely say yes.
Joint practices are nice because they allow starters to face counterparts from opposing teams, and they let coaches control the number of individual or team reps and different scenarios their charges face. These sessions operate under the agreement that foes will hit but with restraint — and no hitting the quarterbacks at all. So these practices generally cut down on the same kind of risks that come with games.
