Star Seahawks player rejects NFL CBA: 'You have guys suffering from 16 games'
NFL star Bobby Wagner joined some fellow players in rejecting terms of the collective bargaining agreement.
"I voted no," Wagner said, echoing his teammate, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who indicated the deal is being rushed through for final approval. "The document is like 465 pages long, and I don't think that is enough time for guys to read it," Wagner said in an interview with CNBC at the event. "To read something that important that is going to affect your life – and this deal is 10 years long — I want guys to educate themselves on what they're signing. I feel like we have a lot more power than guys realize."
