Section 13(a)Sleep Studies
For purposes of this Section “Sleep Studies” shall mean any effort to test, monitor, observe, analyze or collect information on or in connection with the sleep activity of an NFL player or players, without limitation, through the use of wearable sleep trackers and any future iterations thereof. This Section does not and is not intended to affect a Club physician’s ability to order sleep testing of an individual player when clinically indicated (e.g., to determine if such player is suffering from a medical condition, such as sleep apnea). The Parties hereby agree that NFL Clubs may perform Sleep Studies, subject to the following limitations:
Any NFL Club desiring to perform a Sleep Study must hire a qualified third-party company to conduct the Sleep Study,
