NFL Players Association plans to decertify if no deal is reached.

The second deadline, delayed a week from last Friday, March 4, is fast approaching, according to ESPN. The collective bargaining agreement between the NFL Players Association and NFL owners is set to expire at midnight tonight.

Drew Brees, representative for the NFL players, tweeted his disputes with the owners requesting an extra $1 billion of the total revenue.

"The NFL brought this fight to us -- they want $1 billion back, we just want financial information to back up that request," Brees tweeted.

The NFLPA plans to decertify if a CBA is not reached.
