2017: @DeSmithNFLPA -100% injury rate -every player retires with a preexisting condition 2020: -the @NFL/@NFLPA released new #CBA that cuts #NFLDisability and makes it more difficult to qualify. Make sense?
DeMaurice Smith on @FaceTheNation says "we have a 100% injury rate in the NFL" and "every player" retires with a preexisting condition.

Fast Forward 3 years from this tweet to the 2020 CBA- NOW there is LESS care for those affected by the 100% injury rate, CUTTING benefits for those players on #NFLDisability. @DeSmithNFLPA thinks even w/ 100% injury rate, players are faking their disabilities. @NFL @JCTretter

In the 2020 #CBA, the #NFLDisabled have been targeted There is NO OTHER ENTITY in this document that is affected so brutally as it does the men on #NFLDisability Article 60 in this 456 pg doc will devastate these families who will now have their funding cut away.
At a time of financial insecurity 4 American Families covid 19, billionaire nfl owners no longer want to fund disabled former players as they promised in past Senate hearinngs and negotiations. Will u help? WomenoftheNFL @SheillaDingus @PassMonique @scottshanle @BenefitsHuddle

Heartbreaking hearing one of our #NFLLegends 5-time SuperBowl Champ, @CharlesHayleyHoF, saying: "I gave them my life" "I just want them to LOVE us back" "I just don't understand" Instead, @NFL and @NFLPA @DeSmithNFLPA are denying him #NFLDisability Benefits.

Thank you so much @CharlesHaleyHoF for sharing you story. We will keep fighting for you and all the other former players who’ve been illegally stripped of their benefits! Thank you @meiselasb for always fighting with us! pscp.tv/w/cVYqTjFyYVFaRE1aQV…

Team owners "so concerned" about the growing rate for QBs, attempted to inc a player salary cap like NBA's Supermax contracts. "the proposal "died pretty quickly" because the players weren't going for it" BUT @NFLPA was OK to give CUTS to #NFLDisability bleacherreport.com/articles/…

Replying to @jillannoneil
I wasn’t aware of this part of the agreement. We absolutely need to fight for Keith and our retired players’ right to be included in the definition of those with a disability.

Wow! @nflcommish, what changed? You lowered your standards? Or are you saying the @SocialSecurity is not doing their job? @AnheuserBusch @FedEx @amazon @Microsoft , this is who you are backing! Help #NFLDisability keep our fixed income! #NFLWivesForChange
400 #NFLDisabled Former Players & families affected by the CUTS to #NFLDisability from the @NFL Owners x $30,000/ year (A lot for families struggling w/ a disabled love one) = $12MILLION/YEAR. Thats $375k/owner. BILLIONAIRE Owners are willing to devastate families over $375K?
They fight it over $ but it's peanuts to these guys. Bigger reason is for image! If lot players on disability = not good look for the game (too dangerous). In meantime Jerry's on his fun bus, Kraft is at massage spas, Hunt family praising God yet want to cut disability #image🤷‍♂️
