Is this the first step to the league allowing use of (medicinal) marijuana on all levels?

No political talk please.

For this topic to remain, keep discussion to the NFL policy and not society as a whole.

Good luck.

Anyway, I'm not sure why you have "medicinal" in parentheses, the NFLPA's desire to study the effects of medical marijuana is really a side subject of the article. This is instead a recognition by the NFL that marijuana use is not as harmful as the other substances that get players in trouble. It also seems like they recognize the inevitability of use by many players. They are changing the threshold, meaning how much THC must be detected to "fail" a test. That must mean that a certain amount detected is ok.

It's a remarkable development.
