NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement
Players’ Rights To Medical Care and Treatment
Section 19(b)(iii)(F)Behavioral Health Program
(b)(iii)(F)
At the Player’s request only, be available to meet (in-person, if possible, or by phone/video conference) with any Player placed on Injured Reserve (IR) or designated Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) as soon as is reasonably possible in order to assess the need for any behavioral health interventions relevant to the Player’s IR or PUP status. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties do not contemplate that a Player would be required to attend any such meeting, evaluation or assessment by the Team Clinician.
