VIDEO: Steelers OL Maurkice Pouncey Blasts Proposed NFL CBA in NSFW Instagram Story
By Karl Rasmussen
More and more players are offering their opinions on the latest NFL collective bargaining agreement proposal, though not everyone has given their stance in the same manner. While Russell Wilson chose to air his grievances via a tweet, Steelers OL Maurkice Pouncey had a different means of getting his point across. Pouncey posted to his Instagram story on Wednesday morning, going off on an NSFW rant about the proposals while driving shirtless in his car.

Well, that's certainly one way of putting it.
Without even the slightest attempt to mince his words, Pouncey bashed the latest proposal, claiming it's not looking out for the best interests of players. Rather, he feels the NFL and NFLPA are simply trying to get the deal done in a timely fashion, rather than address some serious issues.
Pouncey urged his fellow league members to stand up and fight back against the latest proposal and show support to the league's youngsters, who after all will be the ones most deeply impacted by any changes to the current CBA.
The @NBA & @MLB are doing it right.

Players come first.
ALL @NFL players deserve the same.
WE should not rush the next 10 YEARS for Today’s satisfaction.
I VOTE NO.
Pouncey is voting no, asserting his brother will, too, and he's far from the only star who is looking to improve the current layout of the proposal in order to further benefit players.
