NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is not running the league – COVID-19 is.
Although there is a contingency plan for the 2020 season, part of the problem facing the NFL is the fact that numerous clubs may not have a home base to play their games. Not that these franchises will close up for the year, but may have to relocate in order to hold their home games until the governors of each of these states allow sports franchises to again begin play.
The health and safety of those involved remains an issue.
