The splits are not 50/50, and the actual proportions amount to hundreds of millions of dollars.I expect that one of the key elements in the next CBA negotiation may revolve around the revision of the revenue distributions. A minor change of even half a percent can have a huge impact on the division of money between the owners and players.But our focus in this Nugget is to understand the revenue that makes up the three buckets, and how that revenue is split between owners and players.Let’s get a look at the THREE REVENUE BUCKETSLEAGUE MEDIASo far, this looks like a pretty generous split, with the players getting the lion’s share of the largest piece of the revenue pie.NFL VENTURES/POSTSEASONOkay, so far I’ve got this down as:revenue from external media agreements (except for Thursday Night Football) going 55% to the players; andrevenue from NFL media sources (plus Thursday Night Football) going 45% to the players.That seems simple enough.LOCAL REVENUESOnce again, I’m impressed by the practicality and elegance of the CBA and its definitions. Similar to the breakdown of Player Costs into two buckets that we looked at in Nugget #3, where “Player Benefit Charges” was defined simply as Player Costs that are “not Salary Cap Charges”, here, the CBA identifies “Local Revenues” as ‘everything else’. This kind of allocation of costs and revenues in the agreement makes it easy to implement.Consider this quote from a 2015 article in the Atlantic, titled, America’s Socialist Sports League: The NFLFans tend to think of each team as an independent business engaged in business competition with 31 rival teams that mirrors the on-field sporting competition. In fact, the owners are more like partners, mostly (not completely) cutting one big pie into equal pieces, one for each of the 32 owners.The 32 franchises are designed to be mutually supporting and collectively and individually profitable. The owners are not trying to drive the other franchises out of business. On the contrary, it is in every owner’s interest to have 32 healthy, thriving teams contributing to the overall good of the league.To summarize how the CBA deals with leage-wide revenue used in Salary Cap calculations, let’s just recap the three buckets and applicable splits:This information is key to the calculation of the NFL’s unadjusted salary cap each season.Revenue sharing between players and owners is a central pillar of the collectively bargained labor agreement that controls the NFL and allows it to enjoy its anti-monopoly exemption.A key idea to wrap one’s head around is that franchises are not giving owner’s money to players when they sign them to contracts.The money already belongs to the players Montez Sweat Jersey , as prescribed by the CBA, and that portion of league revenue defined as belonging to the players cannot be taken away by the owners.It’s not voluntary; it is a contractual obligation.The NFLPA has already collectively bargained to get it.The process of negotiating and signing contracts is simply the mechanism by which the money is divided up among the players. PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Washington Redskins are accustomed to the knot in the stomach and the bad news that inevitably hits when a quarterback goes down: Colt McCoy is done for the year with a broken right leg, the same fate as his predecessor, Alex Smith.Mark Sanchez now has his shot to morph from stay-at-home dad to stretch-drive starter.“Your heart definitely breaks for them,” Sanchez said. “They’re great competitors and great people. You never want it under those circumstances.”The Redskins have tasked Sanchez with keeping the Redskins afloat in the NFC playoff picture after McCoy suffered a fractured fibula in his right leg in the first half of their 28-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night.McCoy ran to avoid a sack and tried to slide as the Eagles defense rushed toward him. McCoy’ planted his right leg into the turf and the lower part of the leg and ankle viciously whipped into safety Malcolm Jenkins’ knee.The Redskins know a thing or two about serious injuries to quarterbacks — McCoy got his chance because Smith suffered a broken right leg just weeks ago that has threatened his career.“We have to get a plan ready for Mark moving forward,” coach Jay Gruden said. “We’ve got to play great football around him which we didn’t do tonight.”McCoy stayed in the game and completed two short passes before limping off with the Redskins trailing 7-3 to the Super Bowl champion Eagles (6-6). He made his second straight start since Smith was knocked out with a gruesome season-ending leg injury last month against Houston. McCoy helped Washington score a pair of TDs, including a 9-yard TD pass on the backup’s first pass in a regular-season game since 2015.His start in the Thanksgiving game against Dallas was his first since 2014 and he won’t get another one this year. McCoy, who started for Cleveland and San Francisco earlier in his career, had appeared in nine games over the last three-plus seasons with Washington, until Smith was injured.Sanchez was the lone QB left on Washington’s roster and finished 13 of 21 for 100 yards. He was sacked twice and threw an interception in the fourth with the Redskins trailing 22-13 that snuffed a rally.Sanchez, signed two weeks ago, played for the first time since Jan. 1, 2017, when he was with Dallas.“I was at home with my son who just turned two, who better be in bed, just praying for this opportunity,” Sanchez said.On his first snap, he handed the ball to Adrian Peterson, who raced 90 yards for a touchdown. The 33-year-old Peterson had the longest rushing TD of his career, the longest rushing score in Redskins’ history and he became the oldest player in NFL history with a 90-yard rushing touchdown.“It’s been tough, but the one thing I like is how our guys respond,” Peterson said.Sanchez was once the franchise quarterback for the New York Jets and led them to the AFC championship game his first two seasons in the NFL. Sanchez was the fifth overall pick in the 2009 draft and drew comparisons to Joe Namath in New York. He was 4-2 in the postseason and helped the Jets beat Peyton Manning and Tom Brady in consecutive road playoff games in January 2011. But Sanchez had an NFL-leading 52 turnovers in 2012-13 and lost his starting job to Geno Smith. He spent two seasons with the Eagles and one with the Cowboys.The lasting image of his time with the Jets came in 2012, when he fumbled after running into the backside of guard Brandon Moore. It was returned for a touchdown by New England’s Steve Gregory in front of a national television audience on Thanksgiving night and was infamously labeled “The Butt Fumble.”Sanchez lost a fumble against the Eagles and actually saved the ball by pressing it against his rear end.Sanchez was the pick to sign over Kellen Clemens, Josh Johnson, T.J. Yates and EJ Manuel because of his experience and success in the NFL. All five worked out at the team’s facility after Smith was injured, and quality veteran QBs are in low supply.Of course, former 49ers star Colin Kaepernick is still home unsigned and waiting for a resolution on his grievance against the league. or the Redskins to at least bring in Kaepernick for a tryout.“Mark Sanchez is playing QB on Monday Night Football and @Kaepernick7 is sitting at home. Think about that,” disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong tweeted.The Redskins could use a QB and PR boost after they claimed linebacker Reuben Foster off waivers after he was released by the San Francisco 49ers following a domestic violence arrest. He remains on the commissioner’s exempt list and is facing league suspension.
