NFL may only allow 75-80 players in training camps

On Thursday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that NFL teams will likely agree to have a reduced number of players in attendance at training camps this year. Normally, teams begin camps with 90 players, but due to recent spikes in positive coronavirus cases, the league is contemplating minimizing rosters to 75 or 80 players.

In an effort to combat COVID-19, NFL teams are likely to bring fewer than the regular 90 players they ordinarily bring to training camp, per league sources. One source is predicting 80 per team, another 75, but no one is expecting 90.
