NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said Friday that this week's meetings between league and NFLPA representatives are a "positive sign," The Associated Press reported.
"The importance is to have the principles talk," said Goodell, who spent Friday meeting Army soldiers at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, according to the AP. "That's what we were interested in doing, have the owners and players talk to one another. That was accomplished this week."
Goodell, NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith, NFL owners and players met in St. Charles, Ill. on Wednesday and Thursday in advance of Friday's hearing in front of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in St. Louis. At the conclusion of the hearing Friday, Judge Kermit E. Bye urged both sides to strike a deal before the judicial panel rules on the lockout.
According to The Associated Press, Goodell didn't offer specifics on how negotiations between the NFL and NFLPA would proceed, but he did say both would continue to communicate.
"I would just tell you that both sides are committed to continuing the dialogue," Goodell said.
