NFLPA

Proper public relations efforts go a long way towards good will and the NFLPA knows it.

In simple, straightforward form, a group of NFL players sat before a camera and expressed their gratitude towards the fans who stuck by them throughout the ups and downs of the lockout.

Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth summed it up nicely, didn’t he?…

We thank you for being supportive of us throughout this process.We were trying to make the game better for those guys who played it in the past, the present and in the future. We appreciate your support and we look forward to a great football season. We got this thing done, now let’s play some ball.

One of the challenges for the NFL is the fans difficulty in identifying and connecting to the players because of the helmets they must wear. Videos such as this give fans an opportunity to see the guys up close and personal. Win-win.

The 2011-12 regular season kicks off in Lambeau Field, September 8th, 8:30 PM ET, as the New Orleans Saints visit the Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers.
