Owners care more than players about preseason revenue

[skinsnut]

I've got a basic question here...lets say a player is getting 20 Million a year.
There are 20 games, 4 preseason and 16 regular season.
Would that player get 1M per game for all 20 games?....or does he get nothing for preseason games and 20M/16 for each regular season game?

I really am asking, do players get paid the same for preseason as they do for the regular season?

No players get their salary divided to game checks for the 17 NFL season weeks. Players get the same salary for the preseason games I don't know the exact amount but it's low that's why the owners have more pressure to get this deal done and not lose any preseason game because that's when they get their money and that's why they force u to pay regular season price for preseason games

If their salary is divided for season games....then zero is left.
How do they also get paid for preseason games?
I don't get it.

When you say that players get paid the same salary for preseason games...does that mean that all players get paid the same standard pay for each preseason game?
