The NFL is planning to expand to an 18-game regular season, with 16 international games per year, according to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio and Pablo Torre. This shift could significantly impact the league's global expansion strategy. The league is using this leverage to disrupt networks' business models. The current CBA gives players roughly 50% of all league revenues, and as these revenues rise, Florio believes the NFL may attempt to replace this with a proposal that would replace the 50-50 threshold with a higher payment.
