The NFL's owners voted without opposition to move forward with the salary-cap adjustments negotiated by the league, the management council and the owners this morning, according to league sources.
The resolution ratifying the agreement passed 29-0, with one team abstaining, and means the league will proceed with penalties against the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins. Both teams have filed an arbitration case fighting the sanctions.
It was considered necessary to vote because of the Cowboys' and Redskins' opposition to their penalties. The league took $10 million and $36 million in cap space away from the clubs, respectively.
