The National Football League Players Association has come to a new collective bargaining agreement which includes changes to the league’s cannabis policy. Players will no longer face suspension from the league for positive marijuana test results. These changes bring the NFL’s previously dated cannabis policy to a far more progressive place in the sports world.
