The NFL Players Association has filed a complaint against the New England Patriots for not allowing Malcolm Butler to participate in on-field activities because the cornerback missed a voluntary session on May 26, sources told ESPN. The complaint by the union was filed Wednesday and done without Butler's approval following an initial review, according to sources. Butler became renowned for his interception of a Russell Wilson pass that secured the Patriots' Super Bowl win over the Seahawks. The union cited Article 21 of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA), alleging the Patriots disciplined a player for missing a voluntary workout, which indicated the workouts were not voluntary, and, as the CBA states, an absence from a voluntary activity cannot result in "adverse consequences affecting his working conditions." - See more at: http://espn.go.com/boston/nfl/story...plaint-vs-new-england-patriots-malcolm-butler
