NFL rules prime-time; Nicks injured; Foxworth speaks

Nine months after the NFL and the players' union agreed on an unprecedented 10-year labor deal, the two sides find themselves still at odds over key issues. The latest conflict cropped up Wednesday when the union claimed all 32 teams colluded to impose a secret salary cap in 2010.

NFL Network's Albert Breer spoke to Foxworth and shares his report Friday on NFL.com.
