DeMaurice Smith to Reduce Salary to $0


NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith told players at the players' meetings in Marco Island, Florida that he will cut his salary to $0 during the lockout, Albert Breer of the NFL Network reports.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and vice president Jeff Pash followed through on pre-lockout pledges and have reduced their salaries to $1.

Smith, who reportedly makes $1.8 million annually, had previously promised to reduce his salary to 68 cents if a new labor deal was in place by Super Bowl XLV. That obviously did not happen, so Smith has gone a step further.
