Any news of players going to Reliant?

[painekiller]

Has anyone seen any reports of players going into Reliant today? My understanding was that players could go in to meet with trainers and coaches starting today.

Not going to happen until the union votes Their executive comity is expected to recommend accepting the contract and then Tuesday they SHOULD get the vote by the players. According to the NFL channel the players are then expected to report on Wednesday to get the physicals and stuff out of the way, but NOT practice until the union reforms which likely will happen by Friday. Lots of moving parts yet to get done, but for all practical purposes the deal is done.

I had not read the releases from today by the players at the time I asked the question, thanks edo783 for the information. I have now read the players timeline.

Finally some real news will be available to chew on.

Don't know for sure if ya'll were posting Sunday night or Monday morning, but the NFLPA player reps voted Monday a.m. for the agreement. So I would think the lock-out would be ended. Trying to get the players in and get some idea of where their conditioning is is the biggest question now, I would suppose. See below. (from the official board) It would now appear to be official.

That was after midnight Saturday night, so 1:55 AM Sunday. The player will be allowed in Reliant starting tomorrow morning, so finally some real news.

The team will be able to sign UDFA starting tomorrow, and they can sign their draft players starting tomorrow.

Im waiting to see who they are going to release... Ravens already told McGahee and Heap that they will be released.
