The NFL Players Association officially denied rumors of a boycott at next week's NFL Combine, via a tweet from union spokesman George Atallah Thursday.
"Players will be at the combine," Atallah wrote. "Young men have an opportunity of a lifetime. They are not locked out...yet."
While a boycott of the Feb. 24-March 1 combine has been shelved, players skipping April's NFL draft is likely if no collective bargaining agreement is in place by next month.
