The NFL will reveal an unaltered 2020 schedule Thursday night despite the COVID-19 pandemic that has put most sports leagues in the Western world on pause and the resumption of their seasons in question.
However, the NFL has developed contingency plans in conjunction with the NFL Players Association and medical experts should the pandemic intensify.
One of those would reportedly involve postponing the season until mid-October. Empty stadiums and no bye weeks have also been part of talks. The option of a centralized location for games, though, is not on the table, according to ESPN.
The NBA, MLB and NHL, meanwhile, have considered hosting games at neutral sites.
