The locked out NFL officials will be back on the field Sunday when the league resumes play after postponing last weekend's games following the terrorist attacks.

        NFL spokesman Joe Browne said the league was told by Bill Carollo, the union's executive director, that a majority of the 119 officials ratified a contract that had been agreed to Sunday night and voted on Tuesday and Wednesday.

        Browne said he wasn't given the vote total, but Tom Condon, the negotiator for the union, said the vote was about 2-to-1 to accept the contract and get back to work.
