The Resignation

EPISODE 263: NFLPA executive director Lloyd Howell steps down.

Yesterday morning — after a week of reporting and phone calls with Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio — we here at Pablo Torre Finds Out published the following:

The sequel to our first bombshell together, the centerpiece of this episode is a second secret arbitration ruling I obtained.

A document that had been mysteriously hidden — once again — by both the NFL and the NFLPA.

A document that is almost a mirror image of the collusion ruling.

And yes: this one will be exclusively published, right here, in full, below, as a small gift for our premium subscribers.

(Thank you for supporting our journalism!!!)

The PTFO episode was posted at 5 a.m. Eastern.

By 10:43 p.m. — after just 749 days in office — Lloyd Howell had resigned.

The inside story of this NFLPA regime change, of course, isn’t quite so simple.
