Clubs with new coaches began their work over the previous two weeks.
Phase 1 consists of two weeks with activities limited to meetings, strength and conditioning and physical rehab.
Phase 2 takes place the following three weeks and includes on-field workouts, which may be individual or group instruction with drills conducted at a walk-through pace. No live contact or team offense versus team defense drills are permitted.
Phase 3 ramps up the workouts to include well-known organized team activities (OTAs). Phase 3 is the final four weeks of the offseason program. Teams may conduct a total of 10 days of OTAs. No live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7, 9-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills are allowed.
The offseason program is voluntary outside of mandatory minicamps held in early June -- during Phase 3.
