The league said Tuesday it is revising the program, which provides minority general manager and coaching candidates with networking opportunities with owners and professional training sessions. It plans to resume what it called 'the next iteration' of its accelerator program with a joint session next May for minority candidates for both head coaching and general manager positions, combining sessions that have been held separately. The NFL said next week's session is not being held because it plans to take steps over the next year to improve the program and enhance its chances of success.
