The NFL announced on Monday that it is filing a grievance against the NFLPA, claiming that the union advised players to feign injury to gain leverage in contract negotiations.

Running back negotiations became contentious this offseason as All-Pros Saquon Barkley , Josh Jacobs and Jonathan Taylor failed to secure long-term contracts.

The NFLPA contested the memo in a brief statement, calling it 'ridiculous and without merit'.
