It makes no sense that they can’t be full time in a league and a business that makes billions of dollars a year. What they need is a better system and facility to train these refs and have them go full time moving ahead. “I’m a proponent of full-time officials for a long time,” Arians said. “We had we had about 17 there for a while. The union is so strong but this contract coming up in 2026 with the official’s union. To me is one of the biggest things, biggest contracts the NFL has. And, Pat McAfee had a great idea. “We have a boot camp for business. We have a boot camp for sports information. Boot camp for camp for all these former players. We need an academy for referees. For former players. The best back judge I ever knew was Steve Freeman. He played free safety for the Bills for 13 years. He knows what to look at. He knows what’s egregious. We need more of that. Right now, it’s the only multi-billion-dollar industry that allows part time employees.”
