📖 Key Information

# Franchise Tag (NFL) The **franchise tag** is a strategic designation utilized in the National Football League (NFL) that allows a club to retain a player who is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent. By applying this tag, a team ensures the player remains under contract for an additional one-year term, provided specific conditions and financial requirements are met. ## Mechanism and Limitations Under the terms of the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), each franchise is granted the use of one tag per league year. Teams must choose between three distinct designations: * **Exclusive Franchise Tag:** The team retains sole negotiating rights; the player cannot negotiate with other clubs. * **Non-Exclusive Franchise Tag:** The player may negotiate with other teams. If the player signs an offer sheet with a new club, the original team has the right to match the offer or receive two first-round draft picks as compensation. * **Transition Tag:** A separate designation that grants the original team the "right of first refusal" to match any offer sheet signed by the player, but provides no draft pick compensation if the player departs. ## Key Provisions * **Duration:** The tag binds the player to the team for a single season. * **Availability:** Each of the 32 NFL teams is allotted one franchise tag (either exclusive or non-exclusive) and one transition tag per year. * **Salary:** The player's salary for the tagged year is determined by a specific formula based on the average of the top salaries at their respective position or a 120% increase over their previous year’s salary, whichever is greater.
