NFL Declares Its Free Agency Plan Is a Success

Share

The National Football League’s Management Council Sunday reported that 229 of 619 unconditional free agents changed teams and declared the system a success.

“Hundreds of players moved and weaker teams had an opportunity to get better,” Jack Donlan, executive director of the council, said in a statement.

Among the more prominent players to switch teams were linebackers E.J. Junior (Phoenix to Miami) and Barry Krauss (Indianapolis to Cleveland), quarterback Gary Hogeboom (Indianapolis to Phoenix) and Ron Jaworski (Miami to Kansas City) and offensive lineman Bill Ard (New York Giants to Green Bay).
