The NFL and its players union have agreed to a framework for virtual offseason programs that will begin as early as April 20 and allow coaches and players to interact with each other through videoconferencing tools. The program will be in place through May 15, at which time the two sides will reassess the landscape as it pertains to policies aimed at stemming the spread of COVID-19 and determine how the rest of the spring will unfold.
