Team have been unable to hold their traditional passing camps and OTA's because of the lockout. The latest casualty is the NFL Rookie Symposium. This has proven to to be a vital introduction to the NFL for all rookies. Attendance is mandatory.
Rookies hear from former players about life in the NFL and the issues that come with playing in the league. They are counseled about drugs, alcohol and the problems that can develop with newly acquired wealth.
If this labor issue ever gets resolved, I'm sure the symposium will be held. It's unfortunate that these new players are not getting the word right from the start.
