The NFL is moving towards an 18-game regular season, sparking negotiations between players and team owners over revenue sharing. The NFLPA aims to increase the revenue split to 50% or beyond, potentially netting players millions. An 18-game schedule would pave the way for international games and increased revenue, presenting challenges such as restructuring the offseason, improving player health benefits, field conditions, and in-season load management. Despite resistance from team owners, the league is determined to make the 18-game season a reality by 2029.
