During the Colts' minicamp, center Ryan Kelly expressed his strong opposition to the idea of an 18-game NFL season. As a member of the NFL Players Association executive committee, Kelly emphasized his concerns about player safety being compromised with an extended season.
Kelly highlighted the physical toll that the current 17-game season already takes on players, stating that adding another game would further strain their bodies. He acknowledged the financial motivations behind the proposal but questioned whether the potential risks outweigh the monetary benefits.
