If it's in the current CBA proposal and Schefter says we're gonna see it in this upcoming season, does that mean the new CBA is pretty much done?

If and when a new collective bargaining agreement is finalized -- and there is now mounting optimism it could be done sometime in the next week -- it is expected to change the NFL's playoff structure as it is currently constituted for next season, league sources told ESPN.

Schefter really buried the lede.

So now that there’s no tangible difference between a 2 and 4 seed division winner, there’s going to be hella teams resting starters week 17 from now on because they have a home playoff game locked up, but they won’t get a first round playoff bye, right?
