According to a report from Mike Freeman of Bleacher Report, he has been hearing from coaches and front office executives that they believe it will be nearly impossible for the 2020 NFL season to start on time. Freeman also notes that some of those believe training camp will start in the fall rather than in July.
One thing to pass along: I’m increasingly hearing from coaches and front office executives that they believe it will be nearly impossible for the season to start on time. Some believe training camp will start in the fall.
