NFL agents representing more than 150 draft prospects are organizing a boycott of all testing, on-field workouts and interviews at next month’s NFL scouting combine if heavy “bubble” restrictions aren’t changed, the NFL Network reported.

Unless changes are made, most top prospects will now only do medical evaluations next month in Indianapolis, according to Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.

The players are reportedly asking the NFL to soften its restrictions on who may attend the event. Currently, players may only have one medical support person accompany them to Indianapolis, rather than the full team of coaches and trainers they reportedly desire.

The NFL Players Association reportedly sent a memo to the players’ agents in support of the potential boycott. The union took issue with both the bubble and the current system of each team medically evaluating prospects.
