However, there is a major problem with this—the NFL do not allow its teams to sign players while they are under contract with the CFL. Under current rules, a mid-season offer simply can and will not happen. The NFL can sign CFL players who are cut, or out of contract during the regular season, but for players currently signed to a CFL team, NFL teams have to wait until CFL contracts expire in February.""

It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.
