The arbitrator Stephen Burbank decided in favor of the New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees in his resentment for the designation of their franchise player tag.
A failure means that if Brees does not sign a long term contract this summer and played the 2012 season with their current number of franchises, the season of 2013 is the last time be labeled. In addition, a label in 2013 won a wage increase of 144 percent.
The NFL Players Association had asked the deals to determine if Brees was hit with the label of franchise player in 2012 for a first or second time, because language in the collective agreement is vague .
The Saints put their mark on exclusive rights Brees earlier this season, but his first team, the San Diego Chargers, Brees put the label in 2005, after the contract expired beginner .
The position of the CBA because the union is a franchise player is not more than three times, although the team puts the label.
In making its decision, Burbank, said that all the franchise tags will be displayed this way in the future.
"We are very pleased that the arbitrator agreed with the NFLPA that the correct interpretation of the" third "time franchise player designation applies to all ACB club, and the rights of a player will not be unduly hampered, if different club designates a franchise player during his career, "the NFLPA said in a statement. "... This decision will help all players in franchise future.
We are very pleased that Drew Brees has a clarification on this issue and hope to make a success for the Saints and Drew."
Brees current tag 'worth $ 16,371,000, which will not change the sentence. However, given the pay rise of 144 percent, a label candidate in 2013 put the number of Brees capitalization of $ 23,574,240, according to ESPN.com senior writer John Clayton NFL .
If the saints have chosen to use the label exclusive right to Brees in 2013, which would put her two-year revenue to $ 39,945,240, or slightly less than $ 20 million a year.
