If there were no games this year, do players get paid anything?

Force majeure is a common clause in contracts that essentially frees both parties from liability or obligation when an extraordinary event or circumstance beyond the control of the parties, such as a war, strike, riot, crime, epidemic or an event described by the legal term act of God, prevents one or both parties from fulfilling their obligations under the contract.

There is likely a clause in the CBA that would relieve the owners of payment. Force Majeure is a weak argument.

If they don't get paid do they still accrue a year on their contract?

If the season is canceled, the NFL and NFLPA would have a significant negotiation over whether to toll player contracts a year ahead, or allow players to become free agents whose contracts expired after 2020.Apr 4, 2020
