So, you may have heard the term in NFL circles....    the "legal tampering period."

 

But what does it mean?         Here's an easy story from NFL.com explaining how it works....    Oh,  and the legal tampering period, starts TODAY!!

Yes a very easy and detailed read, thanks for posting. I am adding a link regarding Russell Okung who is representing himself and is not allowed to speak with teams during this period.

Last year it was basically the period when everybody signed contracts. Before that it was the time when you could talk to players, but no contract talk was permitted. . I certainly hope it goes back to the old way, makes FA much more interesting.

Agreed. Last year we had dozens of rumors leaking and most of them turned out to be true. I have a feeling players and teams will keep it a lot more quiet this year, especially with how the NFL responded. Wednesday should be a fun day.
