NFL announces 2023 OTAs, mandatory minicamp dates for all 32 teams

The NFL announced the voluntary offseason workout dates for all 32 teams Friday.

The offseason program is partitioned into three phases as per Article 21 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Phase 1 is two weeks of only meetings, strength and conditioning, and physical rehabilitation.

Phase 2, which lasts three weeks, has more on-field work, but limited to individual or group instruction. The offense and defense can be on the field together but separately as there is no live contact or team drills permitted.

Phase 3 last four weeks and teams can have 10 total days of organized team activities (OTAs). There are more 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills, but still no live contact.

Article 22 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement spells out that teams are allowed a mandatory minicamp, but it must occur during Phase 3.

Coaches who are in their first year with a team can conduct a voluntary veteran minicamp, but it must be before the NFL draft (April 27-29), but no earlier than the third week of the team’s offseason workout program and after at least one week of the two weeks of Phase 1 activities that the clubs may hold pursuant to Article 21. Eight teams are holding such workouts this offseason.

Each team also can have a seven-week rookie development program, which can start May 15. During this time, no activities may be held on weekends, with the exception of one post-draft rookie minicamp, which may be conducted on either the first or second weekend following the draft (May 5-8, May 12-15). Rookie minicamps will be announced later.

Here are the dates for OTAs and mandatory minicamps across the league.
