The Birmingham Stallions face the San Antonio Brahmas in UFL Championship Game on Sunday, June 16, 2024, at The Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis, Missouri.
ST LOUIS, MISSOURI - JUNE 09: Anthony Mcfarland #41 of the San Antonio Brahmas runs against the St. Louis Battlehawks during the third quarter of the XFL Conference Championship Game at The Dome at America’s Center on June 09, 2024 in St Louis, Missouri. SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Across the NFL, teams wrapped up their mandatory minicamps this week leading into about a month-long break before the start of a grueling season that could approach seven months for the teams that make the Super Bowl.
“I think we need it,” Saints tight end Foster Moreau said of the current offseason program. “You cook your steak in the offseason and then training camp is like a microwaving period. Under the current offseason format, players can return to team facilities on a voluntary basis in mid-April. Teams with new head coaches are allowed to start the program two weeks earlier if they choose.
The thought is that eliminating the more than month-long break would help reduce some soft-tissue injuries that typically pop up early in training camp. Jets coach Robert Saleh sees the benefit of the schedule change when it comes to player health and safety, having witnessed too many players get hurt early in camp after not practicing for 40 days.“I’m for it as long as we’re able to maintain the work that needs to be done to continue to develop these young men the way they need to be developed,” he said.
