NFL rookies will gain an education on “The Business of Football: Rookie Edition” later this month at an event put on by the NFL Players Association. The seminar will be held on June 28-29 at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, FL.
The NFLPA will explain important information like financial education and the role of the players association as the rookies begin their professional football careers during the owners’ lockout. As they get acclimated to life in the NFL, lessons learned at the 2011 “Business of Football: Rookie Edition” will stay with these young players throughout their entire careers.
