NEW YORK (AP) - No NFL team will be taking “Hard Knocks” this summer.

HBO said Friday the uncertainty of the lockout “made it impractical for a team to commit” to the popular training camp reality show. The series is set to return next year.

The network will broadcast a 10th anniversary special Aug. 31 looking back at past “Hard Knocks”: Baltimore Ravens (2001), Dallas Cowboys (2002, 2008), Kansas City Chiefs (2007), Cincinnati Bengals (2009) and New York Jets (2010).
