Several players voice disappointment at NFLPA voting to approve CBA

The NFL players' union voted Saturday to ratify the owner-approved proposal for a new collective bargaining agreement, securing labor peace through the 2030 season.

It was a narrow decision on the players' end, with 1,019 in favor and 959 opposed (51.5% to 48.5%). The deal will see an increase in player compensation along with a 17-game regular-season schedule and an expanded playoff field, among other changes.

Some players took to social media on Sunday morning to express their disappointment about the CBA's approval:

Can't believe we agreed to that lol. We can only play this game for so long and y'all didn't want everything we could get out of it? Smfh. 2030 y'all do better

This CBA was shortsighted and constructed to benefit the players who made the majority of the league. Yes minimum salary was raised but at the cost of the players who paved the way physically/psychologically just to be short changed w/o a voice to defend their benefits. Sad

It's good and bad to this deal I could see why anyone would vote either way. I just think it's amazing guys don't even care.

The democratic process has played itself out. We must be committed to unifying our current and former members. While I don't agree with the decision because of its negative impacts on some current and former players, I do respect our process and will push forward accordingly. pic.twitter.com/O0Pe1dg0L2
