Roger Goodell sends memo updating teams on the status of the 2020 NFL Draft

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell sent out a memo to all 32 teams updating them on the status of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Goodell's memo states that the CEC discussed if the NFL should go on with the draft and came to a unanimous decision to have the draft move forward as scheduled, taking place from April 23rd to April 25th. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the US, the NFL will be conducting the draft ceremonies in a different way.

As of now, the league has canceled all public events related to the draft and draftees and their families will not be attending any sort of draft ceremonies.
