When the 2020 NFL schedule was released last month, four preseason games were included, as usual.
Now, according to Tom Pelissero, the NFL and NFLPA are discussing the possibility of shortening the preseason. Pelissero notes that multiple team executives believe the preseason could be reduced to just two games.
Nation, would you be in favor of a shorter preseason schedule?
Shortening the preseason would allow for a longer “ramp-up” period, regardless of whether players agree to report a week or two early, and provide extra time for medical experts to finalize game-day protocols for testing, etc. More at the top of the hour on @nflnetwork
