Tennessee Titans inside linebacker Wesley Woodyard is one of 11 players who have been selected to the NFLPA’s Executive Committee.
Cleveland Browns center J.C. Tretter is President.
Per the NFLPA website, the Executive Committee is selected by the Board of Player Representatives, which consists of players who are “selected by their teammates in the fall of every even-numbered year.
Woodyard is currently the player rep for the Titans, and swing tackle Dennis Kelly and cornerback Logan Ryan are alternates.
Here’s a quick breakdown of what the Executive Committee that Woodyard will be serving on does:
The Executive Committee manages and transacts the business and affairs of the NFLPA between meetings of the Board of Player Representatives. Executive officers are elected for a two-year term in even-numbered years at the annual meeting of the Board of Player Representatives. They must have been members in good standing for one-year to be eligible to serve.
The 33-year-old linebacker has spent 12 years in the NFL, playing half his career with the Titans and the other half with the Denver Broncos.
Woodyard is set to become a free agent this offseason and there’s a good chance he has played his last game with Tennessee.
The veteran played in 15 games last season, but was reduced to a reserve role with youngsters like Rashaan Evans and Jayon Brown assuming starting duties.
Even if he does stay, he might fall to fourth on the depth chart after the late-season emergence of 2019 sixth-round pick, David Long.
