Would they ever go to a 2 bye season?

This 17 game season with 1 bye is really hard on a 53 man roster. 

Maybe when they move to 18 games?

I think yes, they’ll go to a two bye season when they go to 18 games. It will also allow byes for what seems like a bunch more international games.

I could see every team doing a 2 week european or other foreign market swing every year and getting a bye either into or out of it. That way it would balance out every team would still have a balanced true home and away schedule as well as the 2 developing market games. Also see the active roster going to 58 players and maybe a few more game day actives or some kind of 3rd QB type rule where you can dress a few more emergency type players.
