Quote:I can see both sides of the argument.  The off-season should be just that for players, but by the same token they are still employed by the team.  The NFL is a different business and how things like this are handled and resolved is a business issue.

I agree.  

 

Some degree of "managing" a player's re-hab process must be allowed. The team should be allowed to be involved.  The team is heavily invested in that player and his well-being.  

 

Yet requiring them to limit health care choices and family placement/displacement can be seen as going a step too far.  

 

Needs to be a balance struck IMO.
