Per multiple reports, the league and the NFLPA have struck a deal on extending the moment at which the current CBA expires.
The extension, which widely was believed to last at least a week, will push midnight back by a mere 24 hours.
Our guess is that, in the next 24 hours, the two sides primarily will be negotiating the duration of the real extension. There’s too much work and too many issues to get a deal done by midnight on Friday.
So the media horde will continue to assemble at the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, at least for another day.
And possibly for another seven or more beyond that.

Not a long extension, but hey at least they still want to talk to each other. That's a plus, right?
