NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell admitted on Sunday that efforts to expand the regular season to seventeen or eighteen games are moving forward, according to Chicago Sun-Times. The league is reportedly conducting studies on how adding a game or two to the regular season while likely reducing the preseason schedule would effect play. "We're giving serious consideration to it," Goodell said. "There are still significant challenges ahead, but we think it's compelling from the standpoint of the quality of our preseason and reducing that by two, adding those two in the regular season. It'll improve the quality of those two remaining preseason [games], and it'll improve the quality of our product, which is something we're always looking to do."
