Joe Burrow, quarterback for the Bengals, advocates for each NFL team to have 2 bye weeks if the league expands to an 18-game schedule. He emphasizes the importance for players' bodies and suggests an NBA-like All-Star break. Burrow also proposed shutting down the entire league for a week, a move unlikely to be implemented by the NFL. Roger Goodell, NFL Commissioner, has considered reducing one preseason game to accommodate an 18-week regular season, aiming to schedule the Super Bowl on Presidents' Day weekend for an extended holiday period.
