NEW YORK -- According to Yahoo Sports, the NFL has disapproved the recently signed contracts of first round picks Sam Bradford, Gerald McCoy and Kyle Wilson.
The disapproval doesn’t negate the entire contract, but generally means that some language in the contract must be changed before it is processed by the league office. While the contract is being revised, the players in question are still able to participate in practices.
This also occurred earlier in the offseason with the New Orleans Saints’ and their contract with first round pick Patrick Robinson.
Bradford agreed to a contract July 30th that would give him the highest signing bonus in league history, while McCoy reached an agreement with the Buccaneers August 2.
