League spokesman Greg Aiello says the financial concerns of small market teams - like the Bills -are a front burner issue for the NFL.
"This is a real important issue. We want to ensure that the NFL continues as we know it, and that means that every team has a chance to compete for the Super Bowl," said Aiello.
Aiello says in the near future, Commissioner Paul Tagliabue will name a committee of both small and big market team owners to address the issue.
"A committee will be appointed which will include a cross-section of owners to ensure the new system works for all teams."
Aiello adds that the league is putting together a 'best practices' model that will give guideance to small market teams on ways to maximize the money they can make.
